Residents of the agricultural community of East and West Canje are crying out for help. Their major concerns are the main roads in the area.Some time last year,Mike Mitchell Steelers Jersey, contracts to construct the roads were issued to contractor H. Nauth and Sons.The contractor dug up the roads and has left it in an impassable state, according to the residents.One resident said that the road was reasonable when the contractors came to work. “It was a give and take situation then. But then the contractors came and start digging here and throwing there and moving stuff from one place to the next, seemingly without a plan.“Now the place is left in a mess. There are holes everywhere.”“When it rains like now the place is a mess and when the sun is out, the place is full of sand and dust,Atlanta Falcons Jersey, like the Sahara Desert. There is dust all over, in your food, your bed all over. So it’s either mud and slush or sand and dust.”The area has a population of about 10,000 residents many of whom work in the Rose Hall Sugar Estate, and do various other jobs in New Amsterdam,Andre Tippett Patriots Jersey, Corentyne and other surrounding areas.There are lawyers, doctors, nurses, teachers, police ranks, clerks and ordinary workers as well as people who do large scale farming, who live in the area and have to use the road on a daily basis to travel to work. They are all crying out.The residents are peeved that after more than six months the contractor does not seem to have a clue of what is to be done. The road,Carnell Lake Steelers Jersey, at present,Bart Starr Packers Jersey, is among the worst in the country and even worst than some of the roads in the interior.The road stretches from Rose Hall Estate to Gangaram,Rocky Bleier Steelers Jersey, a distance of four miles. It is almost impossible to drive on,Steve Bartkowski Falcons Jersey, especially the section that runs through the villages of Adelphi,Jack Lambert Steelers Jersey, Goed Bananen Land,Ross Cockrell Steelers Jersey, Betsy Ground and Gangaram.There are over 100 taxies that ply their trade in the East Canje area and most of them have stopped travelling in the affected areas; they prefer to turn back half way.This decision is causing tremendous hardships for the already suffering residents. |
