In the framework of a 35-year concession contract, Bouygues Travaux Publics  constructed and now operates a 50-kilometre motorway – the principal one in the country – between the capital city, Kingston, and May Pen, a town in the centre of the island. Highway 2000 has divided journey times for motorists by four. A demanding Quality-Safety-Environment system was in operation during construction to safeguard the environment and natural riches in this protected zone.
