(Daily Chronicle January 25th 1973)
Residents of Corriverton are pushing plans for constructing a road by self-help to link the town and Orealla on the Corentyne river.
This was disclosed by leading a leading resident in the area Mr. Leon Dundas who is involved in the plans.
Mr. Dundas said that the road will be about forty miles long and residents in the area were willing to work on the project.
Already a number of them who have bulldozers and other heavy duty machinery have volunteered to loan them for a period of time so that the work can be completed as rapidly as possible.
The initiative shown by the residents in the area has resulted in persons from other areas such as Kwakwani being involved in the project from their end which will lead to the construction of a road by self-help to link that mining community and the one at Ituni in the Linden area.
Mr. Dundas disclosed that at present there is a trail which could be used by jeeps from Orealla to Kwakwani-hence the possibility of a direct link with Linden.
