Almost seven months after construction began on the Bridge at little Creek, the project is yet to be completed.
The bridge that links the south-west of Antigua to the city of St John’s was badly damaged since November 2020 due to heavy flooding. The already weakened road subsided even further.
Residents in the area have expressed concerns and frustration as a Tropical Storm warning was issued earlier today.
While a bypass was created adjacent to the bridge to allow drivers to travel to and from the city with minimal disruption, some residents traversing the area have grown impatient with the pace in which the work is progressing.
With the threat of this severe weather condition and the temporary block of the path for the water to pass it appears to be serious problems in the south, The situation is serious as the representatives for the area travel this route daily.
Moreso there are several hotels on that side of the island that have expressed concern over the length of time it’s taking to complete the project.
Resident are calling on the government to hastily complete the bridge after the storm would have passed.
