Road closure at My Lord’s Hill

The road along the My Lord’s Hill stretch, between the Welches Triangle to Howell’s Cross Road, St Michael, will be closed from 6 p.m. today until 6 a.m. on Saturday.

This is to facilitate the night work being carried out by the National Petroleum Corporation’s (NPC) contractor, Arthur Construction Inc. (ACI). Only access to emergency vehicles and public transport will be permitted during this time.

The NPC and ACI apologise for any inconvenience which may be caused by this closure, and ask members of the public to approach the area with caution.

Earlier this week, residents and motorists told The Nation they were frustrated by the length of time it was taking to complete the laying of mains, which started in September last year.

They acknowledged the work was necessary, but lamented the damage being done to vehicles as a result as well as the dust, which was also causing problems to those with respiratory ailments. (PR/SAT)
