Antigua to Step Up Road Marking, Lighting and National Cleanup
Speaking on Point FM, Browne said the Transport Board will double its road-marking crews from two to four, employing more staff to ensure roads remain safely marked.
He also revealed that Antigua and Barbuda will shortly receive 1,800 solar-powered street lights from China, to be installed across the island within weeks.
In addition, Browne confirmed the creation of a special demolition unit to clear derelict buildings, alongside large-scale tree planting from a new nursery at Painters. The initiative aims to plant up to one million trees per year and significantly improve the country’s appearance within 18 months.
The Prime Minister said the combined efforts form part of his administration’s wider plan to give Antigua and Barbuda a “new look,” with cleaner, better-lit and safer public spaces.
