I am skeptical of UK USA AND Canada getting contract to build infrastructure in Jamaica….UK say that the highway could not build in Jamaica because of hills but the Chinese build it….the USA get free land and almost 40 years tax free on the north coast Jamaica have to pay for the highway which now needed widening …the Chinese is doing a good job….. do we need those over pricing people here
I hope they fix Bog Walk bidge and all the roads by the low line rivers. They should also put good road going to Milk River Bath. That's the only thing I fear in Jamaica. Those briges are deadly when rain falls.
I’m convinced that there is something big, much bigger than we could ever imagine, that will hit Jamaica’s economy by storm, that will stun the world. According to United Oil and Gas, just a few days ago, announced that their own data has confirmed that Jamaica is sitting on as much as 7B barrels of oil. When the figure was 2.5B barrels, that would’ve placed us just below the UK At #30 of countries with proven Oil reserves, Just imagine the revised numbers. I am appealing to our people get on board, position yourself for this great move of God that is approaching, God nah sleep! The time has come. let us believe again in this great nation we call Jamaica. Please do a video on this announcement a few days ago, you’re the best at this brother.
But don't understand why couldn't the government. Co finance the cost that the company was looking for to complete this field test. When they were looking for a partner. Now the country will loose a lot of money.
@@owenferguson7893 if I’m not mistaken, government will fund state owned enterprises only. But private corporations usually acquire funding through a variety of sources such as:Equity, Bonds, Lenders etc; a kind of Modus operandi so to speak.
All these companies are not coming to Jamaica, they are just international companies that made a bid on the spark program, and only one will be selected.
@drivinginjamaica you need them first. When did they make a reservoir for the Kingston Metropolitan area? It lacks capacity. Look at portmore , it still doesn't have a hospital and they want to make It a parish. I am just saying.
On top of all that burying the electric telecom below ground. No more standing poles along the roadways. Then there are drainage issues to be resolved to bring Jamaica from developing status over the next 20-25 years with proper infrastructure! Now if they could build housing it would be a wonderful thing! Bless🇯🇲🇺🇸
Are these companies going to reside in Jamaica??? Because in a few years the weather/climate change and increasing traffic impacts will cause community road decay over the next few years...
@@eileenwatt8283 Jamaica is seeking to become a "republic" via separationof powerwhike totally ignoring the similar importance of spatial DIVISION OF ADMINISTRATIVE POWER.

Why then waste $billions of taxpayer money on sub utilized parish based municipal corporations if you're going to run local government out of Kingston.

The European never interests in Jamaica on tell the Chinese start to help Jamaica don't trust them look at high way 2000 French did not finish that road.
They have to build bridges on all 3 airports to accommodate the larger airbus' that 380 is one massive jet but it can't be landed anywhere in the region.

What bother me you tell the public say about 70% of Jamaica roads bad and need urgent repairs you should high light the bad infrastructure that the Jamaican population has to put up with
Lagan has already done work here
I worked with them on the Sangster international airport runway extension project. They were the contractors.
Nice.
Bless up bredda all this progress is happening and dem said the government naa doing a good job
Dem must be blind to all this 🙏🙏🇯🇲🇯🇲
ignore the comrades
Lol.
@@drivinginjamaicayou are a Comrade ur self, but we love you.
I don't even vote. For Jamaica.
Finally it seems like Jamaica will have some nice roads
Yep. Progress
Excuse me!!
You are so informative, thanks for the good news.
My pleasure!

Thanks for highlighting I just posted it not reading this prior
Thanks.
It's a good look, loving it
Yep
They’re the best at what they do please welcome them.
Yep. They are more than welcome
Thanks for sharing
My pleasure

Let's see what happens. Remember these roads are built already, re Alignment etc
I hope they fix Bog Walk bidge and all the roads by the low line rivers. They should also put good road going to Milk River Bath. That's the only thing I fear in Jamaica. Those briges are deadly when rain falls.

Very Nice...We Need Outside Contractors
Yes we do
At Sangster, Lagan received the contract but they subcontracted to the local company S&G road surfacing and materials Ltd.
Lagan did not sub the job to S&G they worked with S&G because it would cost them more money to ship their equipment to Jamaica.
Lol. Lagan used the local contractor to do certain parts of the job
Hope they include local roads as well, not only airport runways and highways. Rural roads always end up being forgotten.
That's why they coming.
Yes but down by the ports drainage in that area is a major problem that must be taken care of before any roads will hold up
Hopefully they fix this time around
😮
Lol
Why do you always drive on the right while not overtaking on a dual or three lane road.
You are correct. Thanks
All these companies are not coming to Jamaica, they are just international companies that made a bid on the spark program, and only one will be selected.
Kinda wondering
They all coming. Some are here already
They coming like CHEC
Kingston Airport need some serious work
Yep, that Concession agreement
Jamaica need more contractors to build up the the inforstructure of Jamaica Kingston and Montego bay should have a alot of high rise building
Yep also the North Coast
That may be so , but you need better infrastructure to sustain and support that , water ,sewer and a better ight grid.
That's being worked on
@drivinginjamaica you need them first. When did they make a reservoir for the Kingston Metropolitan area? It lacks capacity. Look at portmore , it still doesn't have a hospital and they want to make It a parish. I am just saying.

The good thing is Jamaica moving in the right direction. Soon get there
Those houses wouldn't be for the average Jamaicans similar to what is happening to the housing market today in Jamaica
Houses being built for every demographic
Are these companies going to reside in Jamaica??? Because in a few years the weather/climate change and increasing traffic impacts will cause community road decay over the next few years...
masa why you so negative. Gosh!
Yes the road has a insurance period
@@drivinginjamaica and that insurance period has a cost/price that taxpayers have to cover...
A period where defects will be fixed by the contractor

No one can build road like the Chinese
It seems so
Our historic town, Spanish Town, needs to be revamped, starting with the streets. If that town has underground drainage, residents will not be hop skipping and jumping over stinking water.
Hopefully they put in soon.
The European never interests in Jamaica on tell the Chinese start to help Jamaica don't trust them look at high way 2000 French did not finish that road.
Dont blame the french on that one because they were not responsible for the lack of a proper feasibility study and proper design.
@@user-bs8iv5gm4hFrench private sector entities can't compete with China's communist government backed companies...plain and simple...!
A Feasibility study was done on highway 2000 and North-South highways by Stanley Consultant from the United States Of America?
@@waynemcfarlane1233show them the Way! No pun intended 😃
Everyone welcome. Ja open for business
Who will be working on the new prison than can hold at least 100 k inmates
You gonna be one of the inmates and your cronies
We will have to wait and see
They have to build bridges on all 3 airports to accommodate the larger airbus' that 380 is one massive jet but it can't be landed anywhere in the region. Ja will be the first country to be able to accept the bigger jets thus creating a massive hub for the Americas...so they can land! Massive massive contracts
Yes. That would be an advantage for Emirates to come to Ja
What bother me you tell the public say about 70% of Jamaica roads bad and need urgent repairs you should high light the bad infrastructure that the Jamaican population has to put up with
Will do
Why would you not lay back the train track for heavy goods ? None of this sounds good it sounds like they just gonna steal another generations money
Jamaica needs the train service
Omg! Some of our people are so ignorant. There’s no growing population that does not need rail service. 😮😮😮
Yep, but the cost is the problem
