The proposed re-route by the Highway Re-route Movement is a total waste of time; is senseless, selfish and unreasonable. The re-route will take the highway away from 300,000 residents living in Penal, San Francique, Siparia, Fyzabad and environs.
I am a resident of Penal, and getting in and out of here is hectic. I work in La Brea, and it takes me approximately 2 hours and 45 minutes each way, because the traffic is really bad. The re-route will not ease the traffic. If the Debe to Mon Desir highway was here, it would have taken me less than 45 minutes each way. It's time something be done to end the traffic woes we suffer every day.
We need this highway in south. That development would benefit thousands of people and future generations to come. Penal residents support the highway 100 per cent! Build the highway, build the highway, build the highway!
