Guyana: US$75.8M EBD Road Expansion: 24-Hour Construction Ordered by Government

The East Bank Demerara (EBD) Road expansion project in Guyana is currently reported to be 62 percent complete, which is below the estimated completion rate of 78 percent. In light of these delays, the government has mandated that construction teams work around the clock to accelerate progress and meet the project’s deadline of December 2026.

President Dr. [Name] has underscored the importance of adhering to this timeline, emphasizing the necessity for increased productivity to ensure the successful completion of the project. The EBD Road expansion is a significant infrastructure initiative aimed at improving transportation and connectivity in the region.

The government’s decision to implement 24-hour construction is intended to address the current shortfall in progress and facilitate the timely delivery of the project. Contractors are now required to mobilize additional resources and labor to comply with the new work schedule.

The expansion of the EBD Road is anticipated to have a positive impact on the local economy, enhancing accessibility for residents and businesses in the area. The government will continue to monitor the project’s progress and any additional measures that may be taken as construction advances.

Further updates regarding the EBD Road expansion will be provided as the situation develops, ensuring that stakeholders are informed of any changes or advancements in the project timeline.
