The Ministry of Works has celebrated the completion of the Barbuda Council Administrative Building renovation, a significant achievement in the island’s infrastructure and governance. This project, finalized earlier this year, aims to enhance local administration and improve service delivery for Barbuda’s residents. Funded through a USD 31 million loan from the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) and additional government investments, the refurbished building now boasts structural repairs, modern furnishings, and expanded spaces tailored to meet the needs of the island’s growing population. The renovation is part of a broader civil works program, which includes the rehabilitation of the Community Centre, now retrofitted for emergency shelter use, the construction of the National Office of Disaster Services (NODS) Operations Centre, and the development of a Community Multipurpose Centre/Emergency Shelter. Additionally, resilient concrete roads are being constructed across Barbuda to enhance transport safety and boost economic prospects. These initiatives are integral to a wider strategy aimed at providing modern infrastructure and supporting sustainable development on the sister isle.
