CONSTRUCTION WORK on the new $3.5 million River Terminal Facility is due to get under way in January and should be completed by August.
Minister of Transport and Works Michael Lashley made the announcement yesterday at a ceremony to mark the start of work on the facility at the old Ministry of Education building, which will be the new home for the terminal.
Lashley told the gathering, which included members of the Association of Public Transport Operators as well as The Alliance of Owners of Public Transport and officials of the Transport Authority, that the long overdue facility would be constructed by his ministry and would consist of three floors.
The first floor includes the covered terminal, bathroom facilities, a police outpost and offices for the Licensing Authority. The Transport Authority will occupy the second floor while there will be additional offices on the third. (MB)
