Coastal road Sees Pavement, Finally!

The Coastal Road is seeing something it has never seen before - and that's a fresh coat of pavement. Last week paving started paving in an area right after the Manatee junction at around mile 24 on the famously bad road.

Works are well underway to fully pave the under-under-utilised road and make it an all weather highway. Apart from pavement the replacement off a number of bridges is also underway.

The Coastal was first marked out in the late 80's and has never been. It will take about half hour off the trip from Belize City to Dangriga.
