Wharf Jérémie

Here is a picture of the new Wharf Jérémie, in the commune of Cité Soleil.

The project was initiated in November 2013 under the various five year action plans undertaken by the Martelly Administration to put Haiti on the road to prosperity by building supportive infrastructure to rejuvenate its competitiveness and facilities for development. To allow the implementation of the project, 323 families were relocated. They voluntarily dismantled their homes and shifted to makeshift shelters or houses. The plans undertaken by his administration also include the construction of the Port of Petit-Goâve, the North Quay of the Port of Port-au-Prince, and the construction of the Unit of Port of Cabotage of Jérémie and of La Saline.

Martelly, like the crowd that was expressive in their favor, seemed quite pleased with the work's progress. The work itself at Wharf Jérémie started in November of 2013, following the launch on September 24. The estimated time for its completion, as given by the site's engineers, is September of this year.

Following their look at Wharf Jérémie, the group continued on to Delmas 2 where they visited the Body Intervention and Maintenance of Order location. There, they were greeted by members of the police force as well as the Directeur General. The president, while there, looked at the building's different areas which will soon house the National Police's specialized unit. The building is over 1,500 meters square and its 3 stories will be fully equipped with a shots hall, sports facilities, cafeteria, and sleeping quarters for some 400 PNH officers.
