(Press Release)<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The Ministry of Works and Housing\u2019s Project Implementation Management Unit will be holding a public consultation for members of the Friar\u2019s Hill Road business community to discuss the Government of Antigua and Barbuda\u2019s Road Infrastructure Rehabilitation Project.<\/p>\n

The consultation will take place at the Multipurpose Cultural Center on Wednesday, December 6 at 6pm.
\nProject Coordinator, Mr. Dennis Cudjoe said:<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

\u201cWith road works scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2018, this is a great opportunity for business owners to learn more about the project and voice their concerns.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Stakeholder engagement is a crucial component in the UKCIF (United Kingdom Caribbean Infrastructure Partnership Fund) grant of 13.9 million British Pounds which is being administered by the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) with oversight from the Department for International Development (DFID).<\/p>\n

Antigua and Barbuda is the first Caribbean nation to access these funds which set out to improve infrastructural capacity.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The link between the community and the implementation agency is Anne Harewood George Community Liaison Officer. She said:
\n\u201cWe are very excited to be holding the first major stakeholder consultation and we hope that participants will feel empowered to give us constructive feedback that will help us to ensure the successful implementation of this historic project.\u201d<\/p>\n

The objective of the public consultation is to begin a dialogue with members of the business community so that they can be adequately informed and several more consultations will be held for the duration of the project.<\/p>
