Corporate area roadways under repair

The National Works Agency (NWA) says it has started to repair some of the worst-affected sections of corporate area roadways which were impacted by recent flood rains.

Repairs are being undertaken on areas along the main arterial roads of Washington Boulevard, upper Waltham Park and Spanish Town Roads.

According to NWA Communication and Customer Services Manager, Stephen Shaw, the sections which are being attended to have been damaged extensively by flooding over the last few months.

He says the state of the roadway in some areas have been negatively affecting the movement of particularly peak hour traffic.

Preparation works are expected to commence shortly along Spanish Town Road in the vicinity of Development Road and Waltham Park Road near the Bay Farm Road intersection, to improve the road surface and driving conditions at these locations.

The much-needed roadwork activities are being facilitated under an existing Quarterly Patching Programme.
