Rehabilitation: Road partially open for Circulation


The road from Axe Former direction des Douanes-carrefour Arno is partially open for circulation.
For some time now there has been construction work carried out and still on going on the from the axe of former direction des douanes to Carrefour arno, to Rue Alfred Saker and the axe of agence orange to Mahima supermarket and right to Cofinest Akwa. All along this roads have been blocked, the reason why there has been serious traffic congestion around this part of the town.
The rehabilitation work is almost through and now the road has been opened partially for vehicles to circulate around axe of former direction des douanes to Carrefour Arno. But more is still to be done to completely open the roads for free circulation. One side of the roads since it is a two lane road has been completed with pave blocks while the other side they have not started with the pave blocks. In some areas the caterpillars are still to enlarge the roads.
The engineer in charge of the work sites in this part of the town, Ntep Ntep Paul René said their job has been to rehabilitate the road and enlarge the road. That is making it a two way lane, with a pave in the middle which separates the two lanes and on which trees will be planted, street lights will also be put in place, and also place a public garden around. For now he said they are working on the pedestrian path. In all, he said they have one kilometre or 1500 metres of road to rehabilitate, build gutters, build parking space.
Ntep said they have done the work from Carrefour Liberté up to Leclerc round about which is about 600 metres already covered. What is left is 400 metres that is 30 percent left on the road.
He added that according to the contract signed with the Douala City Council, they have to be through by October 2009, but he said giving the level at which they are doing their job, by the end of June they will open the road blocks for vehicles to start circulating.
