 The Vadavada community in the South electorate of Port Moresby will see services such as foot bridges and water supplies, MP Justin Tkatchenko said.

The Minister for Sports and Tourism,  while opening a metal footbridge at Vadavada settlement near Taurama, said those services were needed in the electorate.

 A local company, Starwest Contractors, built the K21,500 metal foot bridge.

Money came from the District Support Improvement Programme.

 Tkatchenko was pleased with the project, believing it was worth the money, and he pledged to award two similar contracts to the contractor in same area.

The bridge was a relief to the Vadavada community where about 1000 people live.

Contractor Danis Nenta thanked the community for having trust in him.

“Though there were little hiccups during the start, we were able to complete the project on time,” Nenta said.

He thanked Tkatchenko for the contract.
