A New Welcome Sign for Montego Bay to Be Unveiled in December

Minister of Tourism Hon Edmund Bartlett, Ministry officials and Montego Bay city leaders laid blocks on November 17 to symbolize the commencement of a project to create a new welcome sign at the round a bout in the vicinity of the Sangster International airport.

The aim is to have the new sign completed in December. The previous sign was destroyed through a motor vehicle accident.

In explaining the importance of the sign, Minster Bartlett in his remarks said, “It is timely and essential as it will speak to the emotions we want to conjure up in our locals and the thousands of visitors that must traverse this area.”

The Tourism Product Development Company Ltd (TPDCo) will execute the project and the Tourism Enhancement Fund will sponsor the project to the tune of Seventeen Million Dollars ($17 M).

This development falls within the extension of the Eastern Gateway Project, which is a series of beautification works running west along the Elegant Corridor from Greenwood, to the MBJ Sangster International Airport roundabout.
