NWA working to restore traffic flow along some corridors following heavy rains

The National Works Agency (NWA) continues its efforts to restore full access to corridors in Portland following landslides and fallen trees resulting from continued rainfall in sections of the island.   The Fair Prospect to Folly Main Road in the parish as well as Breastworks to Windsor have been reduced to single lane traffic as a result of debris from landslides and broken trees. Efforts to carry out cutting and clearing have been stymied by continued rainfall in the area.   There are also reports of flooding occuring at the Stony Hill Fording in Portland . The Agency is advising persons to exercise extreme caution and to avoid flooded roadways as they risk exposing themselves to grave danger.
