St Vincent to begin EC$3M road cleaning programme
The Roads, Buildings and General Services Authority (BRAGSA) in St Vincent and the Grenadines will commence an 8-day road cleaning programme from Today, August 9, 2022.
It is being done at an estimated cost of three million EC dollars.
The island-wide initiative will employ over 6,000 people in all fifteen constituencies.
This will include 491 gangs and 1,000 Jobbers, who will be responsible for the cleaning of roads and drains, as well as the cutting of trees.
Contracts will also be given to over 100 truckers and conductors.
BRAGSA appeals to motorists and pedestrians to take the necessary precautions during this period.
The programme, a collaborative effort between BRAGSA and the Ministry of Economic Planning, will be undertaken as part of the Labour Intensive Temporary Employment Programme, which falls under the Volcano Eruption Emergency Programme in that Ministry.
