Government Revamps Key Public Markets | Guyana News

Published 1 week, 6 days ago
Description

The government is launching a major overhaul of public markets nationwide, starting with bids opening August 18, 2026, for La Penitence, Plaisance, and Tuschen. These upgrades tackle critical issues like flooding, crumbling infrastructure, and poor parking that are driving vendors and shoppers away. Beyond new buildings, the Ministry of Local Government aims to create modern, safe, and vibrant economic hubs with standardized models covering sanitation, security, and vendor-council relations. Already underway in Buxton—a $388 million market with dedicated zones and advanced systems—this initiative signals serious momentum to revitalize essential community spaces across the country.
