He is speaking the truth. This briefing should have been done by the Director of Works Who is the director and where is he/she?

The best road on this island is the Western Road heading to Lyford Road past the Old Fort Bay round about. That was the opinion of an engineer in a letter to the Nassau Guardian. It was built and engineered by a Canadian firm for the late E.P. Taylor. Also the roads West Bay Street on
the Bahmar strip. Most roads in this country are not engineered and no built to first world standards The city of Freeport have way better roads than New Providence.

I actually thought it was a pretty good move that an engineer was speaking to the problem. They are moving in the right direction in terms of information. Much better than Sears standing there pretending to know what's happening.

I had a conversation with someone a month ago(?) about roads in Barbados and I could not remember any problem with potholes, I didn't go to every corner of the country but what I remember people referring to as "*bad*" roads was when the road got surface cracks so it was somewhat rough. When they had an issue on a road they would breakdown an entire section and build it back up, not just pour tar over a bad surface or have 50 patched up holes in 20ft of road. Solar panels are also everywhere. This a country where the dollar is half the value of the Bahamian dollar. Their shipping costs must be greater. Something is seriously wrong in our Parliament. We getting rob blind.

@ This is Ours. The Director of Works should be a qualified engineer. He should be able to speak at press conferences about the technical aspects of things in the Ministry of Works. He/She gets a free pass from you yet the FS is under a constant scrutiny from you. A bahamian engineer living aboard from this. New Providence is an engineering disaster with a lot of bad engineering work.

Algernon Cargill said this to a relative and his classmates who he lectured. Barbados is ahead of the Bahamas in some aspects of their development. A next relative of mine said this to me. The cost of living in Barbados was lower than the Bahamas yet they were way down there in the southern Caribbean. He said he experience that when he visited that island. He could not understand that.

You know what is vostly? A 65 million stadium for baseball is ridiculous and costly. No one watches or is interested in baseball. Every one is interested in driving on smooth roads. Stop being and imbecile.

It's what happens when theres no leadership direction, whoever has the loudest voice or is closest gets their idea pushed. Sailing is wonderful but still doesnt make sense as the national sport, its unsustainable and out of reach

Who needs roads they are so antiquated? Customs has a new app though!
