Barbados Water Authority Continues Mains Replacement Work in Bridgefield, St. Thomas: Traffic Delays Expected

The Barbados Water Authority (BWA) advises that work to replace the

mains in Bridgefield, St. Thomas is still in ongoing. This phase of the works

is scheduled to restart on Thursday, April 18th, between 9:00 am and 4:00

pm and to continue over the next two weeks Monday to Friday only.

During this period, mains will be replaced in the vicinity of the Lester Vaughn

School and work may impact residents of Platinum Avenue, Primrose

Avenue, Sunflower Drive, the Gabriel Edgehill Funeral Home and the

surrounding areas.

Motorists traversing the area should expect traffic delays due to ongoing work

and are advised to consider taking an alternative route. The BWA also asks all

persons using these roads to obey the flag men and safety signs around the

job site.

It is possible that residents may be affected by the noise and dust

produced during trenching. No water supply disruption is expected for the

residents in the area until the final distribution system connections are

completed.

The Barbados Water Authority apologises for the inconvenience and

thanks residents for their understanding and cooperation as work

continues to upgrade the mains in the area.
