Here is a quick update regarding the road closure that’s been affecting since St. John since last Friday:
- The road between the basketball courts and the top of Jacob’s Ladder (en route to the Westin) remains closed as of Tuesday night. It is expected to remain closed until Thursday at the earliest.
- Drivers are getting rerouted through Contant Point. This is the road that starts/ends at the basketball courts and also at the top of Jacob’s Ladder (the steep hill). There are cars on the side of the road and spilled/dry concrete in separate areas on Contant Point Road, making it one-lane only at times. Drive slowly and with caution. This is also a neighborhood that has children, so please be mindful of that.
- Public Works announced Tuesday that the road should be cleared by Thursday.
- Public Works also said there will be a power outage on Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. This is needed to safely remove the crane that fell off of the truck last Friday. They did not say which areas or which feeders will be affected.
- E-C Service Station – the gas station ear the basketball courts – closed temporarily this afternoon. It will reopen February 24th. The gas station closed in order to upgrade its fuel system. This has nothing to do with the crane issue on the road just past it.
As always, I will keep you updated if anything changes.
