NWA pushes to reopen Over River Bridge in St James for new school year

The National Works Agency (NWA) is reporting that it is fast-tracking plans to have the Over River Bridge in St James reopened to the public by the start of the new school year. The bridge was washed out during the passage of Hurricane Melissa last October, disconnecting the Over River community from several surrounding areas, including Hurlock and Sign. The NWA noted that the Sign roadway is a popular route used by residents to access Montego Bay city centre.
