Jamaica on Wednesday shipped off close to $50 million worth of bridge infrastructure and materials to tropical storm-ravaged Dominica, fulfilling a pledge that was made nearly two months ago.

The donation, initiated by the Ministry of Transport, Works and Housing, represents a joint public/private sector partnership.

According to the Jamaica Observer, Minister of State in the transport ministry, Richard Azan said the donation is the largest ever contribution of relief items by Jamaica to another country.

He said the donation was Jamaica’s way of showing solidarity with the people of Dominica.
