Fiji Roads Authority Works Within Allocated Budget
The Ministry of Finance has redeployed $15 million to the Fiji Roads Authority (FRA) for maintenance and emergency works.
FRA chief executive officer Kamal Prasad said this would greatly assist the authority with the immediate response works and aftermath restoration effort.
“Nonetheless, FRA will continue to liaise with the Ministry of Finance to secure additional funding so that a constant amount of money, which is sustainable, is spent on maintaining and upgrading roads around Fiji,” Mr Prasad said.
“In the past five financial years, FRA delivered on average $351 million worth of works per year with a low of $250 million in 2020/21 and $419 million in the financial year 2017/18.”
