Edghill orders repaving of $96M Naamryck Backdam road

The contractor was advised to overlay the existing surface with two inches of high-quality asphalt to ensure road longevity.

Further addressing the concerns of residents, the minister instructed that the speed humps must be modified to allow for smoother passage, particularly for farmers transporting produce.

“Whenever we do work in any community, one thing we have in mind is the people. The beneficiaries are the ultimate goal, their satisfaction is important,” Edghill underscored.

Farmers were also asked to avoid using the road with tractors during paving.

The ministry’s engineers will be on-site to oversee construction and ensure the project meets the 1000-metre specification. (DPI)
