For those of you who drive when visiting St. John, there are upcoming changes to the traffic pattern in Cruz Bay.
Beginning next Monday, March 25th, the one-way that goes beside the Lutheran Church and Connections and toward the ferry dock will be reversed, meaning traffic will now flow eastbound, which is away from the ferry dock.
Also beginning on March 25th, the road beside the Post Office and Customs parking lot will become a one-way toward the ferry dock. The exception over here is for motorists who are exiting the Customs lot across from the Post Office. You will be able to take a left out of the lot toward Caps Place or a right toward the ferry dock.
This means that you can no longer drive straight past Woody’s to the ferry. You will now have to take a right after Woody’s and then the following left at the intersection of the Post Office, Uncle Joe’s BBQ and Caps Place. You can also take the roundabout exit that’s between the old school annex (building that still does not have a roof) and Dolphin Suites (a newer AirBnb that’s beside Dolphin Market) and head down the hill toward the Lumberyard and Cool Breeze Car Rental. From there, you can take a left at Cool Breeze and then a right at the Post Office.
This is a permanent change that is intended to reduce bottleneck in town.
(Side note: The map used above is from Apple Maps & clearly it’s outdated. Google’s map had to many labels to use.)
