GREAT BAY (DCOMM):---Ministry of Public Housing, Environment, Spatial Development and Infrastructure (Ministry VROMI), announces that there will be a partial and complete road closure of the G.A. Arnell road (behind the St. Maarten Medical Center). This is in connection with NV GEBE laying of high-tension cables.
On Thursday, December 1, one lane coming up the A.G. Arnell Boulevard from Belair, will be closed to vehicular traffic from 9.00AM to 7.00PM.
Complete road closure will be on December 2 and 3 for the A.G. Arnell road between 7.00PM and 10.00AM. Only emergency vehicles will be allowed.
The works will continue until December 15. All motorized traffic coming from Belair/Philipsburg has to stay on Welgelegen road (vicinity of the hospital) and continue to AJC Brouwers road towards Philipsburg.
