WORK is in progress to clear silted up drains in residential areas and the commercial centre of the Anna Regina township.
According to reports, two machines are working in the town while another is in the Supenaam area and one more at Charity, all on Essequibo Coast.The massive desilting exercise in residential and housing areas is progressing well and residents are thanking and praising the government for the project which
would boost drainage across the coast and in housing schemes.
At Anna Regina a silted up drain next to the old market was recently
desilted by one of the mini excavators and that will eliminate flooding around the market whenever it rains heavily.
