Episode Details

Jamaica’s vital secondary and farm roads, the lifeblood of communities and the economy, are being ignored despite their critical role. While toll-funded highways have seen investment, the thousands of miles of smaller roads connecting them remain neglected — a costly and unsustainable gap. Proper maintenance goes beyond potholes, requiring utilities, drainage, debris control, and sidewalk lighting. Local budgets can’t shoulder this alone. It’s time to rethink funding: redirecting a small, steady portion of toll revenue to local roads could fix the imbalance and build a stronger, more resilient nation.
