The Gesneau Slope Stabilization and Road Project - A Rayneau Masterpiece! (Slide show)

CIE workers on the job
According to the on-site engineer of Construction & Industrial Equipment (CIE Ltd), the Gesneau Slope Stabilization and Road Reinstatement Project in moving along smoothly as planned. While major construction activity began in January, the project is sufficiently advanced; and as long as the weather remains favorable, all indications are that the project will be completed by April end.

The Ministry of Infrastructure reiterates, “The Gesneau road project is one of the more significant projects undertaken in the aftermath of Hurricane Tomas in 2010. A number of homes were destroyed and the roadway connecting Babonneau and other northern communities, and the east coast highway was severed.”

Tensar SierraScape
“Hurricane Tomas Rehabilitation Project coordinator, Jude Regis, said the project was especially challenging due to the magnitude of the landslide and the Ministry of Infrastructure had to undertake a number of preliminary studies. The Ministry is presently constructing a mechanically stabilized earth retaining wall, with a depth ranging between three and nine meters” - It is lower cost alternative to cast-in-place and other concrete retaining walls; the SierraScape Wire-Formed Retaining Wall System is the superior choice for appearance, performance and value. Welded wire forms, Tensar Geogrids and a locking tail strut connecting the two, work together to resist differential settlement, seismic activity and heavy external loads.

Our experts believes that the design chosen (Tensar SierraScape) is sufficiently resilient, and is in conformity with the Ministry’s “Build Back Better” strategy.

The project is funded by the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) under the Hurricane Tomas Reconstruction and Rehabilitation Project. Upon completion, the major link road connecting the Babonneau and the Gesneau communities will be reinstated.
