Words of thanks to CIE Ltd continue to be echoed
throughout the communities of Debreuil, Roblot, Montete, La Maze and Myers
Bridge for the resurfacing of the roads. The Debreuil- Myers Bridge road,
which is also used as a by-pass for motorists traveling from Soufriere to Vieux
Fort and vice versa, has been in a poor state of repair for a very long time -
the works are now complete. It's smooth driving all the way.

Completed works at Myers Bridge |
Early this morning while taking a few pics of the
completed project, I was happy to see that the Mini-Bus Service which used to
ply the Soufriere/La Maze Route was back in operation. Shoppers and workers
have all breathed a sigh of relief. "I want to know who that Mr Rayneau
is, to personally thank him? A young female user of the road from La Maze, who works in Soufriere
commented. On rainy days she has to stay home, due to impassable ponds which completed cover the road in some areas.

A businessman, Augustine William, who
resides in Montete and operates a tourism related service in Soufriere, claims
that using this road has cost him a maintenance bill that exceeded
$10,000.00 last year. "When you enter a hole on this road, you
cannot see the sky." He remarked, to emphasize. the poor state of the
Montete to Myers Bridge was in. He is satisfied now that the road is motor-able
and has expressed thanks to the CIE Ltd for a job that has been well
executed and long overdue.

Now that the road is completed, and with the St Lucia Jazz and Arts Festival sessions scheduled for Soufriere and Vieux Fort, shop owners in the communities are expected to profit much due to the fact that jazz fans from the two venues will surely use this by- pass which cuts travel time by approximately 15 - 20 minutes.
