A rebuilt bridge at Charlestown, which was broken last September after a container truck reversed onto it, was yesterday reopened for public use.
Speaking at the brief commissioning ceremony, Minister of Public Works Juan Edghill commended Devcon Construction Inc for the timely completion of the bridge at Hogg and Sussex Streets, Charlestown. He said that the project, which was allocated $15,908,051, was completed four weeks ahead of the expected date of completion. This translates to four added weeks that the people of the community would have access to the bridge. The rebuilding of the bridge commenced on December 28th, 2020 and was completed 31 days later on January 28th, 2021.
