Administration Announces Completion of Temporary Bridge on Queen Mary Highway in St. Croix

U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS – Governor Albert Bryan Jr. and Department of Public Works Commissioner Derek Gabriel are pleased to announce the completion of the temporary bridge on the Queen Mary Highway in St. Croix. This critical infrastructure project enhances connectivity and improves traffic flow in the area.

The bridge, connecting the intersection of Casper Holstein Drive, Queen Mary Highway, and East Airport Road to Route 707 just west of the Superior Court of the Virgin Islands, will open to public traffic on Wednesday Morning.

This project, completed by Custom Builders, included constructing and paving the bridge approaches and striping and installing guardrails along the roadway. This achievement marks a significant milestone in the Bryan-Roach Administration’s ongoing efforts to address aged infrastructure throughout the territory.

“The completion of this bridge, the first of three under active construction, marks a significant milestone in our recovery, especially regarding our transportation infrastructure. I am happy we are getting this major thoroughfare reopened for the people of St. Croix,” said Commissioner Derek Gabriel. “Residents across the territory can expect us to keep this momentum going.”
