Barentu - The construction of a bridge along the Barentu-Tessenei road
through the Gedem Construction Company is nearing finalization, according to
Mr. Fukadu Tekle, head of the Company's branch office in Gash-Barka region.
He indicated that a 1 km-long wall has been constructed to protect the Gash
Bridge along the Alebu-Fiesko route from any possible accident. Similar
walls have also been constructed in the bridges of Grasha, Adi-Keshi and
Alebu along the Alebu-Tessenei road, he added.
Reports indicate the construction of the time-consuming Mekete Bridge which
is the first of its kind in terms of both shape and structure is nearing
finalization, and that it is expected to render service shortly.
Traveling from Asmara to Omhajer that used to take 3 days has now been
minimized to hours thanks to the construction of bridges, the report added.
The construction of the 8 meter high and 116 meter long Gash Bridge and the
22 meter high and 115 long Tokombia Bridge are some of the major
achievements of the Gedem Construction Company which won broad acclaims.
