Ahead of a hurricane season that could see between three and six major hurricanes, Jamaica’s National Works Agency said it had only a third of the nearly $94 million ($8 billion JMD) needed to repair Kingston’s gully network. According to NWA spokesman Stephen Shaw, the agency had only a third of that number to make repairs in nearly 100 areas. “We have some serious challenges with the gully network in the Corporate Area,” he said. “We will have to make some very serious decisions.” [Jamaica Observer]
