The Government of Dominica has announced a major step forward in the Roseau Enhancement Project (Phase 2), with the award of a consultancy contract for the design review and supervision of rehabilitation works on seven major streets in the capital.
According to a release from the Office of the Prime Minister, the contract—valued at USD $2,246,264—has been awarded to Saudi Arabia Consulting Engineering Office (PACE) in association with Corisav Inc. of Dominica. The selection process was conducted under the guidelines of the Saudi Fund for Development (SFD), utilizing a Quality and Cost-Based Selection method restricted to Saudi firms or joint ventures with local partners. Two firms submitted proposals, with PACE emerging as the successful bidder.
The consultancy engagement will span 42 months and will be executed in three phases:
- Phase 1 (6 months): Design review and support for procurement of civil works
- Phase 2 (24 months): Supervision of construction and road rehabilitation
- Phase 3 (12 months): Oversight during the defects liability period
The OPM release adds that the consultancy will provide technical oversight to ensure that rehabilitation works meet the highest standards, aligning with the Government’s vision of transforming Roseau into a modern, resilient, and pedestrian-friendly capital.
The rehabilitation will cover seven key streets in Roseau: Independence Street, Bath Road, Cork Street, Great George Street, Virgin Lane, River Street, and King George V Street.
