The residents of Wakenaam,Sterling Shepard Oklahoma Jersey, particularly the business community,Barry Sanders Oklahoma State Jersey, are disappointed with what is believed to be a new policy by the Transport and Harbours Department.Their plight lies with the issue of the daily ferry service now operating every other day.Business owners are especially upset about this since the situation is constraining on their businesses.According to one resident,Brian Bosworth Oklahoma Jersey, the last ferry left the island on Saturday,Vince Carter North Carolina Jersey, and will not be returning until Tuesday evening,Billy Sims Oklahoma Jersey, leaving business owners who were planning on taking their produce off the island,Nevada Wolf Pack Jerseys, stranded without notice.“They didn’t even give we any notice that the next ferry won’t be here until Tuesday. That is wrong. That is not the agreement. How else we taking we goods to town and Parika?”Another added that the Clerk in Charge of the Wakenaam stelling should have at least informed them that they would not be able to ship goods off the island for a while.Kaieteur News understands that even some persons who were visiting relatives on the island were forced to leave their vehicles at Parika since Saturday,Tyler Russell Mississippi State Jersey, until Tuesday.Residents are calling for a revision of this new schedule.This newspaper was unable to make contact with the Minister of Public Works for an official comment on the situation. |
