ST JOHN’S, Antigua — Across the twin-island nation of Antigua and Barbuda, ongoing road improvement projects maintained consistent momentum through the month of April, with government officials confirming that key infrastructure initiatives, most notably the rehabilitation of the heavily traveled All Saints Road, are moving forward as planned.
The entire nationwide infrastructure overhaul is being backed by a $100 million regional development loan, which is structured to speed up upgrades to smaller neighborhood access roads even as crews continue work on the country’s primary transport arteries. Among the scheme’s flagship projects, the All Saints Road rehabilitation has logged steady progress over the past four weeks, with construction teams maintaining consistent activity along the high-traffic corridor to keep the timeline on track.
Delivering the upgrades is a coordinated partnership between the Ministry of Works, the national Project Implementation Management Unit (PIMU), contracted construction firms, and several cross-agency supporting bodies including the Antigua Public Utilities Authority (APUA) and the Antigua and Barbuda Transport Board (ABTB).
Project leads have been transparent about the short-term impacts of the large-scale works, acknowledging that the construction activity has caused unavoidable disruptions to regular traffic flow and daily community movement across affected areas. In a public statement, authorities extended gratitude to local residents and commuters for their patience and ongoing cooperation as the works proceed.
Looking ahead, the Antigua and Barbuda government confirmed that road development activity will ramp up in the coming months as additional tranches of the funding are disbursed. The expanded effort will prioritize improvements to both high-capacity major roadways and less prominent secondary routes that serve local communities across both islands, with the goal of delivering a safer, more reliable national transport network for all users.
