The Suva City Council is ready to herald a new era of safety and convenience for public transport users in Suva as the extensive rehabilitation works at the Suva Bus Stand approach completion.

This has been shared the Suva City Council Acting CEO, Tevita Boseiwaqa, who says this vital infrastructure upgrade began in February this year in collaboration with the Fiji Roads Authority and the process underwent a meticulous planning and operational stage with its key priority to minimize disruptions for bus operators and commuters traveling to and from the city.

He says, despite a few unforeseen setbacks encountered, the project has steadfastly progressed through its carefully defined stages, each contributing significantly to the overarching objective of a vastly improved public transport hub.

The CEO adds that the Council is optimistic about the execution of the project, given the steady progress achieved across all stages.

Boseiwaqa says the imminent completion of this project underscores the Council’s steadfast commitment to providing a safer and ultimately more user-friendly experience for each and every commuter.

Boseiwaqa further elaborated on the collaborative effort, and the seamless partnership with the FRA has been instrumental in reaching this point.

He says there are some other pending works that will be completed soon, which include markings and linings.

The Council understands the disruptions caused by such a significant undertaking and would like to thank the public for their patience and cooperation throughout these essential works.
