On Monday, residents of Williams Delight took to the streets in their community to plead with officials to prioritize road repairs in their area. Disgruntled residents say that they have been waiting for a fix for First Avenue since at least 2018. Some longtime members of the community say that the road has been poor for at least two decades or more. Following the passage of Hurricanes Irma and Maria, there was hope that federal funds would be available to effect repairs. However, six years later, after multiple attempts at correspondence with both local and federal officials, they feel no closer to a resolution.
