As works continue on the Great Mountain Site #2 (that is the project closest to Huntums Ghut) a temporary road closure is required to facilitate the concrete casting of the road surface.  Please be advised that the road will be closed from Wednesday, 24 February from 9:30 a.m. until Thursday, 25 February at 7:00 a.m.  During this time no vehicles or scooters will be allowed to traverse the area.  The Ministry of Transportation, Works and Utilities and the Recovery and Development Agency apologise for any inconvenience caused.  Residents living within the road closure designated area will have access to their properties and customers to the businesses within the area.

During this period motorists are reminded to use these alternate routes to enter Road Town or to access the upper Great Mountain area.

  • Traffic coming from upper Great Mountain, Brewer’s Bay and Spooner’s Estate can turn left onto the Ridge Road and head into Road Town via the exit for Johnson’s Ghut/Purcell or continue to Belle Vue and head down Fort Hill into Road Town. Alternately, motorists can access Road Town via Joe’s Hill. 
  • Similarly, heading out of Road Town motorists are advised to access Upper Great Mountain and environs via Joe’s Hill, Purcell/Johnson’s Ghut Road or Fort Hill, Belle Vue and the Ridge Road.
  • Traffic coming from Cane Garden and Carrot Bay through Windy Hill will be alerted at the Ridge Road and Joe’s Hill intersection about the Great Mountain road closure and would be diverted as necessary onto Joe’s Hill Road.
