What is the significance of the phrase “another section”?

Nehemiah 3:27 (ESV)

27 After him the Tekoites repaired another section opposite the great projecting tower as far as the wall of Ophel.

See Nehemiah 3:19 for this phrase. With their first mandate completed, the men of Tekoa volunteered to repair a second section, presumably more difficult (given the terrain) than the first.
