A spelling er­ror on the 'Wel­come to Mor­vant Laven­tille' sig­nage which be­came the sub­ject of much so­cial me­dia dis­cus­sion has been cor­rect­ed. This was con­firmed by the East Port of Spain De­vel­op­ment Com­pa­ny Lim­it­ed in a state­ment on Mon­day evening.

The or­gan­i­sa­tion said the er­ror which em­anat­ed from the man­u­fac­tur­er, has been cor­rect­ed and in­stalled at no ex­tra cost to EPOS, as mock-ups pro­vid­ed did not bear any spelling er­rors.

The East Port of Spain De­vel­op­ment Com­pa­ny Lim­it­ed (EPOS) launched the Busi­ness Im­prove­ment Dis­trict (BID) Project on No­vem­ber 18, 2020 for signs across East Port of Spain.

The launch in 2020 in­clud­ed the un­veil­ing of a “Wel­come to East Port of Spain” sign on the Old St. Joseph Road (east­bound) close to the River­side Plaza; and a Trans­port Hub at the cor­ner of Pash­ley Street and the East­ern Main Road, Laven­tille.
