Re-Opening of Church Folly Bridge, Caution Still in Place

#TurksandCaicos, February 11, 2023 – The Public Works Department within the Ministry of Physical Planning and Infrastructure Development would like to advise road users of the reopening of the bridge at Church Folly to vehicular traffic, following road work done in that area two weeks ago.

We are encouraging heavy equipment operators to avoid this route and use of the bridge for another two weeks (i.e. after February 24, 2023) to allow the structure to reach its full curing strength.

The Ministry uses this medium to express thanks to you the motoring public for your patience, as we continue to make the necessary upgrades to our road network.

The Public is also notified that in collaboration with the Ministry of Home Affairs and in accordance with section 23 (a) (ii) of the Road Traffic Ordinance, the West Road Bridge from Coalbrooke’s corner to Town Tiger’s Bar will be closed at both ends with effect from Monday February 13, 2023 to facilitate planned bridge work in that area.

As an alternative, the public is encouraged to make use of the road leading toward the Bohio Dive Resort by way of Town Tiger’s as well as the bypass road just outside Ona Glinton Primary school.

Please ensure that the appropriate precautions are taken and drive safely.

The Ministry of Physical Planning and Infrastructure Development, PPID, take this opportunity to thank you in advance for your patience and understanding once again, as we strive to better serve you.
