The Savage Pen Road in St Andrew has been closed to vehicular traffic on Sunday (January 17), the National Works Agency has advised.
The temporary closure will be effective 7:00 am to later to reopened at 4:00 pm.
The closure is necessary to facilitate paving activities associated with the rehabilitation that is now underway at that location.
The roadway is being rehabilitated to serve as an alternative to Gordon Town Road that has been impassable since November 8, 2020.
The NWA says the project involves the cutting, widening and reshaping of the roadway, drainage improvement, the construction of retaining walls and the installation of guardrails where necessary.
According to the NWA, the roadway, which is 1.6 kilometres in length, will be paved with asphaltic concrete.
