ABC Highway

The ABC Highway is the main highway in Barbados. Opened in 1989, it is named after three famous Barbadian politicians: John Michael Geoffrey Manningham Adams, Errol Barrow and Hugh Gordon Cummins. It stretches from Grantley Adams International Airport in Christ Church to the Bridgetown Port in Saint Michael, running through the centre of the island from one end to the other.

The highway consist of both two-lane and dual carriageway sections with at-grade intersections, mostly roundabouts. A 2006-2007 expansion project enlarged some sections and there was concern voiced about the project concerning the lack of a competitive tender process or studies to justify the costs.
