St. John’s is set to undergo significant transformation, with the government addressing multiple urban issues simultaneously.

During a recent interview with ABS, Rawdon Turner, the Minister of Social and Urban Transformation, shared plans to tackle street vending, waste management, and derelict buildings as part of a comprehensive urban overhaul.

Turner’s strategy includes creating designated areas for street vendors, reducing sidewalk congestion and improving access for pedestrians. He also highlighted the importance of better waste management, with stricter enforcement on business waste disposal times.

Additionally, Turner revealed plans to repurpose vacant and neglected plots into green spaces, offering residents recreational areas and contributing to the beautification of the urban landscape.

“This transformation will make St. John’s not only more organised but more pleasant for all to enjoy,” Turner said during the interview.

  1. Removing vendors is a low hanging fruit.
    Where is the comprehensive Redevelopnent plan for stakeholders to review and comment.
    The Government is going to turn empty lots into green spaces. Does the Government own these lots? And who is going to maintain these so called green soace lots ?

  2. Removing vendors is a low hanging fruit. Easy to do and should have been done long time ago.
    This is just eye wash without a comprehensive Redevelopnent plan for stakeholders to review and comment; with a time table for completion.
    A chat on ABS is just PR with no substance.

    The Government is going to turn empty lots into green spaces. Does the Government own these lots?

    And who is going to maintain these so called green space lots? Will they turn into a different form of eyesore?

  3. @. (dot or is it a period? Are you on your period?) How about the excessive noise pollution coming out of your disgusting mouth? For the sake of your community, hush your mouth!
