The National Works Agency is comprehensively repairing three main roads in Trelawny at a cost of nearly $180 million.
Janel Ricketts, thee NWA's Community Relations Officer at the Western Office, told JIS that the works, which started in 2022, are at varying stages of completion and are expected to be concluded by May.
The projects entail the Martha Brae to Holland leg of the Falmouth to Springvale roadway, Wakefield to Deeside-Deeside to Dromilly linkages, and the Stettin to High Gate Hall corridor.
Ms. Ricketts said the NWA is executing a major repair effort along the Martha Brae to Holland main road.
This project is the second phase of a targeted approach to repair the 16-kilometre roadway between Falmouth in north Trelawny and Springvale in south Trelawny, she said.
Eighty-five per cent of the work on the Wakefield to Deeside roadway is completed, she reported.
Work on the second phase, which includes the approximately two-kilometre stretch from Deeside to Dromilly, is continuing and estimated to be completed at the end of May.
Meanwhile, work is being done on the Stettin to Highgate Hall roadway in South Trelawny, to repair several sections damaged by flood waters due to successive storm events over time.
