And as you may have noticed, Mayor Bradley was speaking today at the opening of another street. Under his leadership, the council has paved 23 streets - and today PUMA street was declared open.
It is the namesake of PUMA Energy, which has taken charge of what was formerly the ESSO franchise in Belize.
The land that PUMA street spans was actually the property of the adjacent PUMA Ramon's Gas Station - which has been newly re-branded.
PUMA agreed to assist the Council with the 40% of the cost for the concrete paving so that it could become a proper street.
Today the mayor said it is an important one as well:..
Mayor Darrell Bradley
"They contributed about 40% of the cost for constructing the street. The street cost us $41,000.00 and it was done by M&M
Construction. The street was actually finished about 2-3 `weeks ago but Puma was not ready in terms of their re-branding exercise. So today we officially dedicated the street and it provides a major gateway from Coney drive for persons to access the Northern Highway in the morning so that they could go on to the Northern Highway. From a traffic management perspective it's a street that very necessary - there are couple other of the streets that we have chosen to do because of its importance to allow access to persons in the Coney Drive area to the Northern Highway."
