Heavy rains lash Hanover
Published: Saturday | October 24, 2009
Heavy rainfall in the parish of Hanover impacted movement along the section of the North Coast Highway between Tryall and Lucea. The National Works Agency (NWA) had sent out an advisory at the time that a section of the roadway in the vicinity of the Tryall Hotel was under water, while debris and flood waters are now severely affecting movements along the Sandy Bay main road.
A fallen tree reduced to single lane a section of the roadway between Kew Bridge and Lucea, in the vicinity of Church Street.
Up to press time, Stephen Shaw, manager of communications and customer services at the NWA, had teams attempting to reopen at least one critical drain in the community of Sandy Bay.
