THE Ministry of Public Infrastructure has advised that asphaltic concrete-paving operations for the East Coast Demerara Public Road Widening and Improvement Project , Better Hope to Belfield village, will commence on Tuesday, October 16, 2018.

These works will be executed on the east-bound lanes between the villages of Better Hope and Montrose, the ministry said in a notice. Consequently, preparatory works for the paving operations are necessary and will commence on Saturday, October 13, 2018; this will result in closure of the east-bound lanes within this section. Motorists and pedestrians are therefore asked to exercise caution and observe all caution and directional signs, particularly in the vicinity of the works. We sincerely regret any inconvenience caused.
