The National Water Commission (NWC) is advising that the replacement of a sewer pipeline that runs along Long Lane in Montego Bay, St James, will continue this weekend, causing disruption to traffic flow.

The work is set to take place from 7 p.m. Saturday to 4 a.m. Monday.

The NWC says during this period, pedestrians should be cautious when using the area and motorists should use alternative routes as some roads will be closed to vehicular traffic.

The roads to be closed are:

  • Long Lane 
  • Union Street, between Harbour Street and Long Lane 
  • Market Street, between Harbour Street, Long Lane and Strand street 
  • Corner Lane 

The NWC is also advising that the work will cause a dust and noise nuisance.

The NWC says it apologises for any inconvenience this may cause and urges patience and understanding.
