World Bank funded housing project to get underway soon

A World Bank funded housing project is expected to get underway soon to benefit up to 50 individuals.

Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit says this is in addition to government’s commitment to build 5000 houses for citizens, as part of its housing revolution.

Mr. Skerrit says work on the World Bank funded homes should begin soon.

Mr. Skerrit says work on new housing complexes are ongoing in various parts of the island, including in Cochrane and in Roseau Central. Meantime, Mr. Skerrit says funding has also been approved for the construction of two new hurricane shelters.
