Over 40,000 residents in communities across St Ann now have access to reliable potable water following the activation of three multimillion-dollar infrastructure development projects on Friday.

Discovery Point, Retreat, Runaway Bay and Brown’s Town are among the communities in which residents will have greater access to piped water.

One of the projects, phase one of the Brown’s Town-to-Retreat pipeline, was officially commissioned by Minister of Water, Environment and Climate Change Matthew Samuda and is expected to benefit some 6,000 residents.
