issues. According to the release, the second phase of the project, scheduled for early 2017, will see rehabilitative road works being executed along D’Andrade Street to lend to improved drainage. Additional drainage works are also expected to be done in phase 2.

The works have been contracted to R&B Investment.

Works are also hoped to be done on drains close to the St. Winefride’s Secondary School to improve drainage and alleviate unsanitary conditions.

McKenzie said that one expected complication will be gaining the co-operation of the area’s residents in accommodating the works. However, he said, some residents have already indicated their willingness to co-operate.

Some of the streets that will benefit from this intervention include D’Andrade, D’Abreu, Lamaha, and Duncan.
