The government has given a $9.4 million grant to the Fiji Roads Authority for the construction of the new Denarau Bridge.
Attorney General Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum said the Denarau Bridge will now be reconstructed on a slightly different basis.
Sayed-Khaiyum said the ownership of the bridge will also shift to Fiji Roads Authority.
Fiji Roads Authority CEO Neil Cook said they will finalize the design of the bridge in a few months’ time.
Cook said preliminary works will start on site soon.
They will complete the new bridge in one year.
