Minister Maria Browne announced that the Ministry of Housing, Works, Lands & Urban Development has officially launched the National Highway & Community Beautification Project.

This initiative seeks to elevate the visual appeal of our highways while actively contributing to global endeavors in addressing climate change.

Collaborating with the Antigua Public Utilities Authority (APUA), the National Housing & Urban Development Co has meticulously identified locations for planting palm trees along Friars Hill Road.

To ensure the unimpeded growth of the palms without affecting infrastructure, electric wires will be buried underground in 2024.

  1. This is a good initiative. My one concern is that the space where that palm was planted looks insufficient for something that will grow so large.

    • Lol, you guys can’t give a genuine compliment without a criticism? Have you seen the palm trees in Florida? Oh gosh, man.

  2. Wonderful idea and I see the vision however my concern here is Friars hill road already has a tendency to be congested at times. Going forward there will only be more complexes and shopping centers built along both sides of the road leading to more congestion, however now with these palms their efforts may be wasted and/or make it difficult to expand the road if they ever decide to. Just my thoughts.
