Roadways across the Western parishes of Trelawny, St. James, Westmoreland, and Hanover are now receiving some well needed attention. This as the National Works Agency (NWA) is undertaking a robust spray patching programme in the Western Region.
According to Community Relations Officer for the NWA Western Region, Janel Ricketts, this latest effort by the NWA targets approximately seventeen thousand seven hundred (17 700) square metres of roadway. Ms. Ricketts says that this programme will focus on the worst affected sections of these roadways.
Patching has been completed along several roadways in the Region. These include the stretch of roadway from Adelphi to Hampden in St. James; the Wakefield to Friendship main road in Trelawny and the Seaford Town to Marchmont corridor in Westmoreland.
Ms. Ricketts added that work now continues on sections of the Retrieve to Marchmont corridor in Westmoreland and the Green Island to Glasgow main road in Hanover.
This latest effort by the NWA follows closely on the heels of a forty nine million dollar patching programme which was undertaken in the region in February of this year.
Motorists are being advised to obey the posted warning signs and instructions of flag persons.
