Africa-Press – Cape verde. Ten unlocked locations are the result of the road construction and rehabilitation program that the Government has carried out in recent years, in Santo Antão, in an investment of 1.5 million contos.
The person saying this is the deputy from the Movement for Democracy (MpD), power, Damião Medina, in response to what he considers “lack of respect” from the PAICV (opposition) representatives in classifying the roads as small works.
The inhabitants of excavation communities, according to the parliamentarian, have made their lives much easier in every way, thanks to the construction and rehabilitation of excavation roads in more than ten locations, covering a length of more than 40 kilometers, “investing around 1. 5 million and 500 thousand contos to date”.
According to Damião Medina, “ the work continues” anticipating the construction and requalification of more roads in Santo Antão to “bring development to communities, promote employment, tourism, the flow of products, but also contribute to the settlement of people”.
The Government has already announced the requalification, starting this year, of the access roads to Ribeira dos Bodes and Ribeira Fria (Porto Novo) and Caibros (Ribeira Grande), having also announced that studies will be carried out “soon” with a view to building the road to Dominguinhas (Porto Novo).
Still in the municipality of Porto Novo, residents have been asking for the requalification of the Ribeira da Cruz – Chã de Norte and Campo Redondo – Chã de Norte roads.
