The new market and bus terminal for Nausori town was opened yesterday by Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama.
The three-million dollar project is part of government’s continuing program to deliver the best possible services and infrastructure to Fijians.
The new facilities are expected to be in use – by vendors and the communities on the 22nd of this month.
“This project is arguably one of the most important because of its potential to empower our people economically -the many hundreds of Fijians who come by bus to Nausori to sell the crops they grow and the goods they produce from all over the surrounding region. And the many others who will use the bus station as a transit point to Suva can now do so with much greater convenience and comfort.”
The facility replaces the old market that has been in operation since 1938.
