SAINT LUCIA
Millennium Highway and West Coast Road Upgrade
This project will rehabilitate and upgrade key road infrastructure linking the capital city, Castries, in the north to Soufriere in the South, reducing overall travel time and improving safety, all-weather accessibility and climate resilience of the road network, and improving accessibility for persons with disabilities.
82,400 residents
will benefit from shorter travel times between the capital city and communities in the south of the island, increased resilience against hurricanes, and reduced risk of flooding and landslides along the project route.
This project has been made possible through a grant from the United Kingdom Government under the UK Caribbean Infrastructure Fund (UKCIF), which provides grant funding for climate-resilient infrastructure projects to encourage growth and to support improved livelihoods, poverty reduction and safer conditions for residents. UKCIF is administered by the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB).
