The sign, which was unveiled in honour of Olympian Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce yesterday, was changed this morning to one that correctly reflected her name.

Ashoka Road in Waterhouse, Kingston, where the track star grew up, has been renamed Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce Drive.

However, during yesterday’s unveiling, it was discovered that her last name was spelt incorrectly.

The Kingston and St. Andrew Municipal Corporation (KSAMC) immediately offered an apology and committed to having the sign replaced.

Speaking with reporters this morning, Chief Executive Officer of the KSAMC Robert Hill again apologized and expressed appreciation to Mrs. Fraser-Pryce for dealing with the matter graciously.

Meanwhile, one community member who said he is related to the Olympian said citizens acknowledged that the incorrect spelling of Mrs. Fraser-Pryce’s name was a small mishap.

He said the focus should be on the fact that the matter was addressed swiftly.
