Groundbreaking Ceremony for Rodger’s Beach Enhancement Project
ORANJESTAD – San Nicolas hosted the groundbreaking ceremony for the Rodger's Beach enhancement project on September 11, 2024.
This project follows the principle of “Build with Nature,” which the Department of Public Works (DOW) has applied for some time.
It means to respect nature and restore the natural features of the area. During the Rodger’s Beach enhancement project, they will remove and relocate the asphalt areas where vehicles are currently parked, expand the beach, and create more space for the community.
Prime Minister Evelyn Wever-Croes, Minister of Tourism and Public Health Dangui Oduber, Minister of Education, Endy Croes and Minister of Finance and Culture Xiomara Maduro, were present for this occasion.
The Rodger’s Beach enhancement project is a collaboration between the Aruba Tourism Authority (ATA), DOW, and several stakeholders. The project lasts approximately four months.
