Member of Parliament for the All Saints West Constituency Anthony Smith Jr. has expressed his satisfaction and excitement with the commencement of concrete pouring in the Lightfoot area, marking a significant milestone in long-awaited road infrastructure improvements across the constituency.
This development has been ongoing for the past week.
Speaking on the progress, MP Smith described the moment as “very exciting for the people of All Saints West,” especially those in Lightfoot, where residents have lived for over 40 years without proper infrastructure.
“We’ve prepped quite a bit of roads all over the constituency with the aim of pouring concrete, and today we were able to start the process,” he said.
The MP emphasized that this is part of a broader, inclusive development plan.
“We are not leaving anybody behind,” he assured, highlighting several communities set to benefit from future works, including Herberts, St. Clair Heights, Bellevue Heights, Buckley’s, Sea View Farm, and Freeman’s Village.
MP Smith reaffirmed his commitment to fulfilling campaign promises, stating, “We had a very comprehensive plan developed with the Minister and Director of Works to address the infrastructure issues… It’s a promise that we will come to every corner in All Saints West—it’s just a matter of time.”
