The government yesterday signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with a Chinese construction company to carry out infrastructure work on three Family Islands.
The government will now begin negotiations with the China Harbour Engineering Company Ltd. (CHEC) to design and build the North Abaco Port and by-pass road; a bridge between Little and Great Abaco; a port and by-pass highway in Exuma; and the Eleuthera Glass Window Bridge and approaching embankments.
