Over the coming weeks, the KSAMC will be utilizing approximately $220 million from the Parochial Revenue Fund, channeled through the Divisional Allocation Fund, for road rehabilitation across the municipality.

All 40 divisions will see essential road works carried out in their communities, whether through patching, resurfacing, or repairs to critical sections. This is a direct response to residents’ repeated concerns about potholes, damaged surfaces, and poor road conditions.

At the same time, we recognize that this funding alone is insufficient to address all the parochial roads under our care. We wish we had additional resources, as more funding would allow us to make a significantly greater impact on road conditions throughout Kingston and St. Andrew. Nonetheless, the KSAMC has to ensure that we conform to strict procurement guidelines to ensure compliance as well as the best value for money.
