The APUA Water Business Unit continues its mainline upgrade using HDPE pipes in the St. John\u2019s Point area. Our team is now in the final phase of this project, which will span along Newgate Street from the location formerly known as Barnes Funeral Home to Cross Street.<\/p>

Motorists and road users are advised to expect temporary delays. Sections of the roadway may also be temporarily inaccessible to motor vehicles, and drivers should proceed with caution when travelling through the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

APUA acknowledges the disruptions and any inconvenience caused, particularly to the road surface. We wish to assure the public that we are in communication with the Ministry of Works regarding restoration.<\/p>
