Millions Spent, Bridge Still Dark

Less than a week ago, there was much fanfare surrounding the official opening of the newly renamed Mike Espat Bridge, formerly known as the Joe Taylor Bridge. The government proudly highlighted the millions spent on the project, but since then, PGTV has received numerous reports from concerned residents that the bridge lights are not working. Our team went to see for ourselves, and we can confirm that the lights are indeed not functioning. We attempted to contact the Ministry of Infrastructure Development and Housing (MIDH) for a response, but our calls went unanswered. We will continue to follow this story and provide updates as they become available.
