The officials made the announcement during a Community Consultation held on Tuesday January 2nd, 2024 at the Spring Village Methodist School.
The meeting, spearheaded by area representative Carlos James, is a part of a series of public consultations slated for the North Leeward community during this year.
Damion Allen, Senior Quantity Surveyor, assigned to the National Roads Rehabilitation Programme within the Ministry of Transport and Work, assured residents of Spring Village that work will commence on the first kilometer of the Hermitage Mountain Road by the second quarter of this year.
