Jamaica Gleaner UWI/Eye on Science
published: Thursday | September 7, 2006

HAZARDS OF OUR COASTLINE: The Palisadoes: Safe Access to the Airport? Pt2
No danger of Isolation - Therefore, we can say, with some confidence, that the access road to the Norman Manley airport, as well as the airport itself, will not be in any danger of permanent isolation provided the necessary mitigation steps are taken.

How did the Palisadoes form?
In the previous installment of the Hazards of the Jamaican Coastline series, we mentioned that the Palisadoes has evolved into a complex structure as a result of the way it has developed over the past 5000 years.


What of the future?
Most of the public concern about the integrity of the Norman Manley Airport and its access road has had to do with two developments that will occur over the next hundred years and more.
