The Ministry of Commerce, Planning and Infrastructure today, (Wednesday, March 11) advises the public of the decision not to proceed with the proposed Smith Barcadere project.

The Smith Barcadere Committee agreed that the project should not be pursued.

The Ministry commissioned the project on land that was purchased by the government at Smith Barcadere in 2016. The Public Works Department was in charge of project management and consultancy services for the project.

The project was in an early stage of development, with the tender review process completed in February.

No project works have been undertaken on the site and none are planned for the future.
