May Pen to Williamsfield toll implementation further delayed
MANCHESTER, Jamaica — Motorists will continue to utilise the May Pen to Williamsfield leg of Highway 2000 toll free as the toll implementation has been further delayed.
The National Road Operating and Constructing Company Limited (NROCC) announced the extension in a notice on Friday.
“The commencement of tolling on the May Pen to Williamsfield Highway, scheduled for August 17, 2024, will be further delayed. NROCC appreciates the public’s continued patience and understanding. Relevant updates will be provided as soon as they become available,” the company said.
NROCC is responsible for overseeing the design, construction and maintenance of Jamaica’s highways.
The May Pen to Williamsfield leg includes approximately 23 kilometres of a four-lane, arterial divided highway on a new alignment and approximately five kilometres of the existing Melrose Hill Bypass, now a four-lane, rural, arterial divided highway.
