Dominican Community Demands Completion of High School, Bridge Repair After Hurricane Fiona

Residents of El Guano in the Dominican Republic are pleading with authorities to finish construction of their high school and repair a bridge destroyed by Hurricane Fiona. The partially built school, started in 2017, remains unfinished, causing frustration among the community. "The problem is they started the El Guano high school in 2017, and to this day it's not finished," said one resident. The damaged bridge, also a consequence of Hurricane Fiona, presents a considerable safety hazard for the community. The dilapidated structure forces elderly residents and school children to navigate precarious crossings. A recent visit by a government commission promised swift action, yet the situation remains unresolved. The community's plea emphasizes the urgent need for the government to fulfill its promises and restore dignity to El Guano.
