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.”

“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.
