A project is underway in The Gambia to install 1200 street lights across the Greater Banjul Area and add decorative lights to Arch 22 and Denton Bridge. The project is being funded by the OPEC Fund for International Development and the work is being carried out by the Global Trading Group (GTG).
The project is due to last for twelve months until January 2010 but it is hoped that the first phase (Westfield to Banjul Highway) will be completed before the birthday of President Jammeh on 25th May. 300 people are being employed on the project, 98% of which are Gambian and it is hoped that when finished it will help boost tourism and small scale businesses.
