#JamaicaGleaner #PriceSmart #NWA #Portmore #LeonThomas FEBRUARY 8, 2022: A construction boom in Portmore has triggered calls for an expansion of the road network in the fast-developing St Catherine community. Besides the erection of business process outsourcing centres and other emerging buildings, the impending opening of the PriceSmart megastore is expected to attract a beeline of traffic that has swamped the main corridor to the shopping club’s only other outlet in Kingston. Portmore's Mayor Leon Thomas has stressed that an overhaul of thoroughfares in the vicinity of the under-construction PriceSmart building was necessary.
