Roadworks Underway in several communities
The Ministry of Works has commenced a series of road improvement projects across several communities in Antigua, as part of the government’s broader push to enhance infrastructure.
The works currently underway include road patching, edge cleaning, drainage improvements, and base preparation. Active sites include Gambles, Fort Road, Wireless Road, Clare Hall, All Saints Road, and Herberts Highway. In addition, the widening of the Belmont bridge that leads onto All Saints Road

Minister of Works Maria Browne publicly acknowledged the efforts of key persons via a Facebook post earlier this week, thanking those involved in the execution of the projects.
“Thanks to our hardworking Director of Works, Mr. Collis King and Team for addressing this issue,” Minister Browne wrote. “Special thanks to Mr. Lewis and his Team at the concrete plant who have been batching and pouring constantly over the past several days.”
The Minister emphasized that the success of these projects is the result of close collaboration among various departments within the Ministry of Works. She noted that continued cooperation and coordination are central to delivering lasting improvements to the country’s road network.
The Ministry is expected to provide further updates as works progress in the coming weeks.
and they still not fixing all saints road
Lol yeah for real. I driving on it last night and it is horrible because you are blinded by the bright beam lights and still trying to avoid potholes.
Maria on the move. Great work. Keep it up!
Great work done by Maria and the Entire ministry of works. This is what you call delivering promises. Teach your husband a little things about that
Patching roads doesn’t make sense. Why not just fix over the whole road. Patching roads an then the rain fall and the hole gets back there. Thanks for widening that bridge tho
Bit by bit. Brick by brick. You can do it Matia. Drown out the noise. We will get there and shut up the nay sayers
Sugar caking potholes in roads is not a lasting measure. Tearing out and fixing them properly is a much smarter financially since they will need less frequent maintenance over the years. Do the job right so money, time, and other resources are not wasted. Kudos though on getting the road infrastructure rebuilding started Minister Browne đź‘Ź.
I wonder if by next election they will finally fix the road in Cashew. Yes, the last one that no one ever remembers. I’m not sure tapping some on the back for doing something they are supposed to do is a big deal.
Looks like Crump was the problem then
