Monday and Tuesday from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. the Department of Public Works conducts road repairs along a portion of Benburin “Benny” Stephens Drive in the Bovoni area of St. Thomas.
DPW contractor – Grace Civil LLC — has previously completed several segments of the Bovoni roadway and will return to the area adjacent to the Puma Gas Station to complete the remaining section of the project. To minimize disruptions for motorists and residents, construction activities will take place overnight from 10:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. each day.
Motorists should expect delays, exercise caution, obey all traffic control devices, and follow directions from flaggers and construction personnel. Residents and commuters are encouraged to plan accordingly and allow additional travel time.
Also, Monday through Wednesday, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. the Post Office Beautification Project in the Historic Downtown Charlotte Amalie could slow traffic.
DPW contractor — Island Designs LLC. — will mobilize on-site beginning with a temporary refrigerated container that will be stored on the eastern side of Emancipation Garden for the delivery and offloading of project materials. The refrigerated container is expected to remain on-site through Wednesday. Landscaping activities will take place from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., and the project is scheduled to be completed by August 2026.
The Post Office Beautification Project is part of the Department’s ongoing efforts to enhance the appearance of public spaces and create a more welcoming and aesthetically pleasing environment for residents and visitors.
