CLARENDON, Jamaica — The National Works Agency (NWA) says a failed section of the road embankment along the Mineral Heights to Lionel Town main road in Clarendon has been temporarily reinstated.
The NWA, in a press release on Wednesday, said it carried out emergency work overnight to fill in the hole that was discovered Tuesday, leading to the corridor being reduced to single-lane traffic.
Manager of Communication and Customer Services at the NWA, Stephen Shaw, said the area that measured over six metres wide and four metres deep was excavated and suitable material was used to recreate the road embankment.
