Montego Bay Floods and Drainage Plans

Montego Bay Floods and Drainage Plans

Published 2 days, 13 hours ago
Description

Montego Bay’s flood crisis just got a brutal climate reality check: rainfall hitting over 350mm in 24 hours is now routine, overwhelming bridges and drainage systems. Officials are ramping up flood control with a new plan to boost capacity, improve maintenance, and prevent backflow—while the nearly finished $354M Perimeter Road (including the Long Hill Bypass) will directly ease flooding in hit zones like Catherine Hall and West Green. This isn’t just infrastructure—it’s climate adaptation in action.
