Ground was broken on Wednesday for the construction of a $4.2 billion urban centre at Boundbrook, near Bryan’s Bay in Portland, which will house government offices and private entities.
Prime Minister Andrew Holness, political representatives from Portland, a team from the Factories Corporation of Jamaica and China Harbour Engineering Company (CHEC) participated in the ground-breaking ceremony.
Holness said the project, which is to be undertaken by CHEC, is being done in the right way which resulted in the delay to the start of the actual construction.
“So this is not a chakka-chakka development. And I can tell you that because we were trying to avoid chakka-chakkaness it took longer than we wanted,” commented Holness.
