« Since the last meeting at Vairao town hall, tensions have really eased »: straight away, Evelyne Whitman, second deputy mayor of Taiarapu, sets the scene…yet the tower affair caused quite a stir in November and December. So much so that the President suspended work for a time following the incident with the barge which broke corals.
On January 8, 2024, the sun returned to the sky of Teahupoo, as in the minds. The marina work continues even if it has been delayed a little due to bad weather. “ If we look at everything that the Country and the State have invested in this infrastructure, here on Teahupoo, with the marina, the footbridge and the tower, Teahupoo is lucky » continues the elected official.
At PK 0, the new footbridge is taking shape, under the gaze of the inhabitants of the peninsula who oscillate between approval and resignation. Some see the games as an international showcase and the opportunity to evolve on a sporting, economic, professional level… others always remain a little apprehensive.
Last Thursday, municipal councilors met representatives of the Ministry of Youth. Among the issues discussed, that of the filter barrier which will be put in place in front of the town hall. “ We therefore asked, as elected officials from Teahupoo, that the population be able to move freely during the Olympics. »
If the Olympic event is held in less than 200 days, the judges’ tower must be ready before, for the WSL competition, scheduled for May.
