Guyana plans a new bridge over the Corentyne River

Guyana is negotiating to build a bridge with neighbouring Suriname to be built across the Corentyne River.

The signing is expected to take place when Guyana’s president visits Suriname for their independence anniversary on Nov. 25.

Guyana’s chief transport planning officer, Patrick Thompson, said consultations are still ongoing for the final design of the flat bridge leading from Guyana to Long Island, where a road will be built to connect to the Surinamese side. The Suriname section of the bridge will be high-span to allow for maritime traffic.
