Good move.  At least one person in the Govt has the capacity to think.

Restore the Berbice river ferry and force the bridge to reduce their rates.

When the fare is restored to a significant level and the if the ferry is no longer needed, Essequibo/NWD  farmers are always in need additional river transportation.

If the bridge goes bankrupt, Bobby can go cry on Jaggy's lap.     

It is better to find a solution. A bridge just cannot be abandoned.

 Excellent move.

Bad move by Ramjattan. Let's calculate how much it would  cost to run a ferry across the river. People are used to the Bridge for efficiency and no waiting time. People would rather pay the toll before going back in time as the dictator would like very much. The ferry and speed boats are risky business. Berbice river is much wider than the Demerara river. Ramjattan would compensation the people for their lives?

The Corentyne is wider than both of them, but people have been crossing it at Springlands for more than a century in small boats. Mann has even crossed the Atlantic in a sailing boat. And many Guyanese travelled to Europe on a banana boat. So what's this about the width of those rivers?

Seignet, I believe it all comes down to control and greed, but finding a mutual solution would be in everyone's benefit.

Who allows an investor to make a small contribution for a project, but gets the largest return [23%] for his investment and the company with the largest investment gets almost nothing in return.

Most ordinary people in Berbice are not rich as others and would rather wait for a ferry than cross the bridge, at  a higher cost.

A ferry service would also be benficial to large trucks that transport rice to GT and supplies from the city, that crosses the bridge by weight.

 

I believe it was a deliberate attempt not to include a pedestrian walk on the Berbice bridge, so everyone have to cross in a vehicle.   

 

I realize a ferry service might bankrupt the bridge, but politicians who are involved with the bridge, must take responsibility and make people first before profit.     

The ferry will not serve the need of the people, neither it wouldn't help to decrease the toll. Ramjattan can go ahead and try it to cripple the Berbice river Bridge. His crime policy is a failure. His 2:00 am curfew is a failure. His gun amnesty is destined to fail.

You are full of kaka.

Cobra worried about the collapse of his investments in the bridge. His focus is entirely on financial losses for the investors, rather than a cost reduction for those wishing to cross the river.

He need to remove his blinders and think for all Guyanese equally.

Its the only way the country will go forward progressively.   

Cobra does not care about the populace.

Are you stoned?

Have you been eating beef?

ISNT THE AFC PART OF THE GOVERNMENT?
