J'can workers complete stand at Trelawny stadium
CFC Construction Limited, the Jamaican company that was sub-contracted to build the southern stand of the Greenfield stadium in Trelawny, has completed the project ahead of the May 30 completion date.
The completion of the stand, which is twice the size of the northern stand built by the main contractors of the stadium - the Chinese company, COMPLANT - is being heralded as a big achievement by CFC, which is managed by Delroy Christie.
"It was a matter of pride, we worked up to midnight seven days a week to get the project finished," Christie told the Observer yesterday.
The stadium which will host the opening ceremony of Cricket World Cup 2007 is being built on a loan from the Chinese government.
Three hurt in St Mary crash
THREE people were injured Wednesday in an early morning car crash along the Boscobel main road in St Mary.
The St Mary police gave the names of the injured as Courtney Sinclair, Daphne Watson and Robert Brown, all of St Mary.
The police said that at around 5:45 in the morning a Toyota Corolla station wagon, driven by Brown, was proceeding westward along the Boscobel main road when it veered into the path of an oncoming Mitsubishi Pajero driven by Astley Sinclair of Marine Park, White River in St Mary.
Brown, along with Sinclair and Watson, who were passengers in the Pajero, received injuries and were taken to the St Ann's Bay Hospital where Sinclair and Watson were treated and released while Brown was kept for observation.
The accident resulted in extensive damage to both vehicles.
