Minor delays expected on Jackson Town to Ulster Spring roadway – NWA
TRELAWNY, Jamaica – The National Works Agency (NWA) says effective Saturday, October 7, motorists may experience delays as they traverse the Jackson Town to Ulster Spring roadway in Southern Trelawny.
These delays may be experienced over the next two days, between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm as the NWA works to install culverts in the vicinity of the Level Bottom community.
Community Relations Officer for the NWA’s Western Region, Janel Ricketts said the works will result in sections of the roadway being reduced to single-lane access.
She added that the works form part of the $166 million effort to upgrade sections of the corridor between Jackson Town and Ullster Spring in Trelawny.
“…The project is now far advanced, involves significant drainage improvement, the construction of parapet walls, the reshaping and asphalting of the worst affected sections of the roadway; and the construction of a retaining wall in the vicinity of the Ullster Spring Primary School,” Ricketts said.
The project, which commenced in mid-May, is expected to be completed by December 2023, said the NWA.
