The Wismar-Mackenzie Bridge is officially taking shape as asphalt begins laying on its deck — a major milestone for Region Ten’s $35 million infrastructure upgrade. Set to open by October 5th at the latest, this four-lane toll-free crossing replaces a congested two-lane bridge, slashing traffic jams and boosting safety. Beyond the bridge, surrounding roads are being modernized with new lanes, medians, and traffic islands to ensure seamless movement of people, goods, and services across the Demerara River — unlocking economic growth and improved connectivity for Linden and beyond.

Guyana’s Port & Refinery Push | Guyana News
Guyana’s President Ali is pushing hard to secure financing for a game-changing deep-water port in Berbice, a cornerstone project tied to the nation’s ambition to build its own oil refinery and break free from importing all refined fuels. While his recent trip to Qatar focused on the port, two new refinery proposals since then—alongside an earlier UAE offer—signal growing global interest in Guyana’s energy future. With engineering firm Bechtel nearing completion of its port study, officials are poised to make critical decisions soon that could reshape Guyana’s energy independence and position it as a regional supplier of refined products.

A 35-year-old man faces life-altering charges after fleeing the scene of a fatal hit-and-run that killed Sonia Williams, beloved headteacher of Kildonan Primary School. The crash occurred on Rose Hall Town Public Road in Corentyne when her car was stopped and she was struck while opening her door. Despite his lawyer’s claims of innocence and no impairment, prosecutors argue he’s a flight risk — citing his disappearance, vehicle tampering concerns, and his own admission in an interview. Bail was denied by the magistrate, who emphasized the severity of the crime and his post-accident conduct. The case will resume October 20th, with potential reconsideration of bail for lesser charges.
