The instruction came in accordance with item 25 of the contract document “Correction of Defects,” which was signed with the Government of Guyana via the Ministry of Public Works.
The ministry urged the contractor to fix the issues as soon as possible to minimize the inconvenience to residents. The public has also been assured that the ministry’s Special Projects Unit (SPU) will be working closely with the contractor to ensure that the work is done according to set standards, and all defects are remedied in a timely manner.
