Over 200 roads across the island targeted for repair by end of March under Go Programme

Over 200 roads across the island have been targeted for repair by the end of March, under the Graded Overlay Emergency Road Rehabilitation (GO) Programme.

Works Minister Robert Morgan gave an update on the $1.7 billion Go Programme at today’s post cabinet press briefing.

He stated that work began in December, but was halted due to rain and because most of the asphalt plants were not opened.

Under the Go Programe work will be undertaken on several critical corridors across the island, many of which were damaged during Hurricane Melissa.

The Government had indicated that the majority of the funds would be spent in western parishes which were hardest hit. However, the minister said there is damage to roads across the island.

Meantime $500 million will be spent on road improvements in Kingston and St Andrew.

Turning to Western Jamaica, Mr Morgan said $230 million will be spent in St James and $107 million in Trelawny

Meantime, he says road works are being done in Westmoreland.
