Mayor Faaiq Mohammed says there are no plans to remove vendors from the Chaguanas market.

The market is undergoing upgrades that include the installation of two premium booths, which the Mayor says are part of a larger vision for local government transformation.

One of the booths is in an area where no vendors previously operated, while the second required the relocation of a doubles vendor and a sweets vendor.

Mr Mohammed assures however that accommodations have been made to ensure that their advantages are not compromised.

He says they are also in the process of regulating vendors to the front of the market and, once completed, this initiative will provide permanent spaces for them.
