Residents of McPond, All Saints, are witnessing significant road upgrades not seen in over 30 years.
The infrastructural improvements form part of an ongoing national effort to rehabilitate roads across Antigua and Barbuda.
“We are demonstrating once again that we prioritise our people,” said community spokesperson Lamin Newton. “What has not been done in the last three decades is now becoming a reality.”
Mr Newton commended the Ministry of Works, led by Minister Maria Vanessa Browne, for what he described as a clear commitment to delivering results.
“We have no doubt that Minister Browne and her team understood the assignment. We will continue until every single road is paved — every single one,” he added.
The road works in McPond are part of wider infrastructural upgrades being carried out in several communities across the island.
The Ministry of Works has yet to confirm a completion date but says it remains committed to improving road conditions nationwide.

Why is this news? And did the government commence spend down on the roads?
That fellow Newton is a real suck up. Maria be careful, can’t trust a suck up, never know what he might want to suck next
Bout time dem roads get fix, well needed.
Hope dem na stop halfway, finish it properly.
Well done
Hope dis na just fi now, but something dem keep up with.
Nice work!!!
We must keep up the pressure on these ‘slow coach’ politicians to do what they were elected to do for all hardworking Antiguans that regularly use the roads.
Though 11 years late, the ABLP recognised that they could no longer make promises or even mention those worn out MODALITIES like; “maybe”, “might be”, “coulda”, “shoulda” and “woulda”.
Gaston Browne and his team had run out of excuses and delaying tactics. Even their own supporters recognised that the roads had to be addressed.
Hopefully he wife has a good and well qualified team to do our road infrastructure properly.
In addition, with this restructuring, I’m hoping that this government will be commencing public information in regards to better driving standards and road safety practices.
What we don’t want when the roads are smooth is a rise in traffic accidents and fatalities.
ABLP, be proactive for once in your political life.

They will obviously tackle a lot of roads, remember an election is nigh, the question is the quality of the work. I will bet my last dollar the work will be sub par, haven’t you seen those that they have done in the city eg. Radcliffe street and part or high street and trying to convince us it’s high quality
