The Otram River, formerly known as the Port Maria River or the Port Maria Western River, is a river in Saint Mary Parish, Jamaica. It reaches the sea in the parish capital of Port Maria and contributes to flooding in that town.[2]
It is joined at Trinity by the Negro River, where an aqueduct, completed in 1797, and over a mile's length once drew water from the Otram river to supply the Trinity sugar plantation.[3]
