The reconstruction of the road is divided into two phases with Karl Benjamin Construction Firm and Simon Lendore to undertake work on the project. Minister for Carriacou & Petite Martinique Affairs, Senator the Hon. George Prime said it is important for the people of Carriacou and Petite Martinique to have proper access to the Princess Royal Hospital. He described the undertaking as a major achievement for the NDC Administration, since all previous governments have only made promises to reconstruct the road.
