published: Wednesday | September 17, 2003
THE NATIONAL Works Agency (NWA) has announced the closure of the Otram Bridge in Port Maria, St. Mary, to facilitate rehabilitation work which will start on Monday.
As a result, the agency has implemented several route changes. Small vehicles, cars and vans travelling from Oracabessa to Port Maria will now travel along Cox Street, via Albion Mountain Road to Trinity onto the Port Maria main road. Vehicles travelling from Highgate to Oracabessa via Port Maria, will now have to turn left at the Trinity intersection onto Albion Mountain Road via Cox Street.
Large vehicles, such as trucks travelling from Highgate to Oracabessa will be required to turn at Bailey's Vale Road through Free Hill, Jacks River to Oracabessa. Those travelling from Oracabessa to Highgate, or Annotto Bay, will travel through Jack's River to Free Hill, along Bailey's Vale Road to the intersection, then turn left onto the Highgate/Annotto Bay main road.
