Liberia: Public Works Ministry commences work on two Bailey bridges in two Counties
Nov 12, 2009
by Michael Kpayili / Staff Writer
The Ministry of Public Works on November 10, 2009 commenced the launching of two Bailey bridges in Montserrado and Margibi Counties.
Inspecting the launching of the bridges yesterday, November 10, 2009, acting Public Works Minister Johnson N. Gwaikolo said the two Bailey bridges in Careysburg and Nyanforla Town are intended to improve the safety of motorists travelling the adjoining roads with the aim of lessening transportation difficulties for rural dwellers.
Commenting specifically on Nyanforla Town Bridge linking Margibi and Bong Counties, Acting Minister Gwaikolo divulged that the Bailey bridge launched in the area is intended to provide a safer crossing for vehicles plying the road while the reconstruction of the permanent Bridge is being considered. He said other Bridges around the Country have been earmarked for construction but urged community dwellers to get involved in seeking short term employment as means of taking ownership of these bridges in their respective communities. He expressed satisfaction over the level of progress made in accelerating ongoing Bridge construction around the country.
The two Bailey bridges being launched in Careysburg and Nyanforla Town are been jointly implemented by Engineers of the Ministry of Public Works and the Pakistani and Bangladeshi contingents of the United Nations Mission in Liberia.
Speaking on behalf of the Pakistani Battalion in the area, Major Ghasanfor Nawaz Khen said UNMIL Peace keeping roles are divided into several stages. He named peacekeeping, social and infrastructural developments as well as sharing of relevant training with Liberians in whatever way possible.
The two Bailey bridges are expected to be completed in two weeks.
