Demerara Harbour Bridge in operation

Georgetown : The Demerara Harbour Bridge (DHB) is back in full operation this afternoon allowing up to 22.4 tons per vehicle. However maintenance works are ongoing

General Manager of (DHB) Rawlston Adams described the maintenance team which responded and was domiciled on the bridge since its closure as an excellent team which understood the important of having the bridge operational.
 “People must understand that this is a team work…this is testimony to the dedication of workers of the bridge…they take pride in maintaining and keeping this bridge afloat Adams said.

On Monday morning last at 6:45 hours, the jaws of a temporary pontoon which was installed by maintenance team at the weekend to execute schedule maintenance works broke causing the section of the bridge between span 61 and 60 to be submerged.
