This is not the same Dry Dock Manning used to push. That was Ettiene Mendez's project with a proposed reclaimed island called Sullivan Island off the coast of PoS.

This one was started under Vasant as Min of MTI in conjunction with the EDB (Economic Diversification Board now EDAB of the Min of Planning).

Correct Trinidad Dry Docks.

Correct Trinidad Dry Docks.

Always surprised that that project never got any traction given Etienne's standing in the Red party.

Well based on what we have geographically and the hydrocarbons here- its a good idea-

My only real concern -beyond execution, is how will this impact the Gulf of Paria.

300 acres, implied heavy traffic of large ships...and the issues attendant.

[timelapse]

^With PNM in charge, the 1% will end up getting ownership of the gulf of paria too and Stuart Young will be acting in a related position

China harbour has been getting a lot of work done recently in delivering large scope jobs. I hope that this proposed dry dock actually gets off the ground quickly.
Would love to see what the EIA recommendations are coming out of the study

AFTER decades of waiting, the San Fernando Waterfront Redevelopment is set to begin.

Decades wait? Buh the PP "started" that toward the end of their term, hence the li'l patch of umbrellas and chairs just after the shacks on Lady Hailes Avenue.

It's the same thing the Pee oN deM is doing — just so they will have something to show for elections. Say what at least ex-Petrotrin workers go have something to do...

IDB: T&T Govt spending among most wasteful

TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO Government spending is among the most wasteful in Latin America and the Caribbean, a new Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) study has shown.

The IDB study, “Better Spending for Better Lives: How Latin America and the Caribbean Can Do More with Less”, came out on September 26—days before T&T’s 2019 national budget was read in Parliament on October 1 by Finance Minister Colm Imbert.
