The condition of several roads in Manchester is slated to show marked improvement over the next two weeks. In recent times persons have complained about the poor state of some major corridors in the parish.
The National Works Agency (NWA) says it will be embarking on a programme to improve the driving experience in the parish. To this end 10 road sections will be targeted through a 5 million dollar programme being financed by the Road Maintenance Fund (RMF).
Community Relations Officer of the NWA’s Central Region, Howard Hendriks says that Spray Patching Machines owned by the Agency will be used to undertake the works. The road sections to be targetted are Skull Point to Craighead, Mile Gully to Oxford, Williamsfield to Mile Gully, Newport to Pusey Hill, Whitney Turn to Williamsfield, Bellefield to Mizpah, Greenvale to Spur Tree, Gutters to Downs, Mile Gully to Johns Hall and Coleyville to Ballynure.
The NWA is advising motorists to obey all posted warning signs and the instructions of flag persons.
