ST JUDE' PHASE1 WORKS MOVING ALONG AS PLANNED - COMPLETION EXPECTERD BY YEAR END

Rayneau Constructions and Industrial Equipment(CIE) Limited appears to be beating the clock as the team moves at breakneck speed and making much progress on PHASE 1 at St Jude's Hospital. You will recall in the last post we mentioned that Pawan Joshi, an engineer at the company, gave a  synopsis of the work to be done in phase one of the reconstruction of the  Hospital.

Below is part of the engineer's remarks at the opening ceremony for the official commencement of work on the hospital.
"Phase one includes the cleaning of the entire site, including all buildings. It also included fumigation and anti-termite treatment that needs to be carried out because of the time that has elapsed since the buildings were not used. Work is presently ongoing in the East Wing and the surgical building as well as the power Laundry and maintenance building.  The floors are being cleaned, and to carry out all the above works seven (7) sub-contractors are on the job together with 42 crews. This Phase one operation is expected to continue for the next four (4) months."

A recent visit to the work site twenty-five days after work began, reveal that phase 1 work has been moving at a steady pace and is nearing completion.
