Infrastructures : Dethié Fall annonce des sanctions sévères contre les entreprises défaillantes
The Minister of Infrastructure, Déthié Fall, announced a series of strict measures following the collapse of part of the Cambérène bridge. He described the situation as dangerous and unacceptable for the local population.
According to him, discussions have been initiated with the Prime Minister, Ousmane Sonko, in order to take strong decisions in collaboration with the Public Procurement Regulatory Authority (ARCOP).
The objective is to severely penalize companies that have failed to meet their contractual obligations.
“Any company that signs a contract with the state and fails to deliver quality work must be penalized,” the minister stated. The measures under consideration include exclusion from public procurement for periods ranging from two to more than five years, and even a permanent ban in the most serious cases.
Déthié Fall emphasized the serious consequences of poorly executed work, including the additional cost to the state for infrastructure rehabilitation, as well as the risks faced by citizens. "This lack of quality exposes the population to dangers, and that is unacceptable," he stressed.
The minister also revealed that the head of state had personally alerted him by sending him, a week earlier, images showing the advanced deterioration of the Cambérène bridge, inaugurated in March 2023. He had then asked him to take urgent measures to remedy the situation.
Since then, Déthié Fall has announced that discussions have been initiated with the company in charge of the work and its subcontractors, with a view to quickly launching the rehabilitation operations.
