Samuda rules out night work on pipeline project out west
Only one outlet has reported this so far: treat it as unconfirmed.
WESTERN BUREAU: Water, Environment and Climate Change Minister Matthew Samuda says undertaking all pipeline replacement works along western Jamaica’s busy tourism corridor at night would increase construction costs by 50 per cent, an additional expense the Government cannot afford. Samuda was reacting to the growing frustration being expressed by motorists, hoteliers and business operators about the daily misery caused by prolonged traffic congestion being experienced across the region.
