The Drainage Division of the Ministry of Transport and Works (MTW) will open the sluice gate on Friday, December 13, 2024 at 7.00 p.m. until Saturday December 14, 2024 at 7.00 a.m.
Water levels at the Graeme Hall Swamp in Christ Church are currently elevated due to the recent rainfall, and as a result the sluice gate will be opened to reduce these levels.
Members of the public are reminded that Worthing Beach remains open. The Drainage Division is assuring the public that any discolouration seen is as a result of leaves, mud and debris and not sewage.
MTW apologises for any inconvenience and thanks the public for its patience.(PR/MTW)
