The Burrell Boom Road in Belize joins the Philip Goldson and George Price Highways bypassing Burrell Boom. It is approximately 12 miles (19 km) long.
History
The road was constructed in the 1950s as a gravel road, creating a crucial link between the George Price Highway and Philip Goldson Highway. In 2003 the current Burrell Boom Bridge was constructed to replace the old steel truss bridge and a bypass was built around Burrell Boom and the entire road paved. A 250m long floodway was also installed in 2003.[1]
Currently, as of September 2025, a roundabout is under construction at the junction with the Philip Goldson Highway.[2]
