Description
For more than thirty years, Tony’s Barbeque has been part of the BelCan Bridge landscape. But now, the longtime food stop is being asked to move as government prepares to replace the bridge and redesign the area around it. The Ministry of Infrastructure Development, working with the Belize City Council, has given vendors and car dealers in the area thirty days to vacate. Some have already relocated, but Tony’s Barbeque is asking the community to stand with them before their August fifteenth deadline. The business says it supports progress, but also wants local businesses to be valued in the process. Back in May, News Five spoke with Chief Engineer Evondale Moody, who explained what the Ministry expects from those still occupying the area.
