The Department of Public Works (DPW) advises the community of an upcoming road closure at the Clifton Hill Intersection on Route 66 on St. Croix. Starting Tuesday, April 22, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., DPW contractor–Grace Civil, LLC.– will mill and pave centerline road at the La Reine Intersection. Traffic will be re-routed through the adjacent shopping center. Evening work will also take place on Tuesday, from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. on the highway from the Home Depot Intersection to the Diageo Intersection. Evening work is to avoid traffic delays during the day for certain sections of the roadway. The roadway will be closed to all traffic while asphalt pavement work is in progress. This work is the start of a four-phase paving project scheduled to be completed by May 1. The remaining sites will be updated when more information is available.

The traveling public is urged to avoid these areas while asphalt work is in progress. All traffic traveling eastbound will be detoured onto Route 663 (Diageo Intersection) to Route 70 (Kingshill Intersection). All westbound traffic should detour at the Sunny Isle Intersection and access Route 70 (Queen Mary Highway). Motorists who fail to detour at the Sunny Isles Intersection (Route 66/Route 70) will be detoured at the Home Depot Intersection to access Route 709 through Estate Sunny Acres.

The Department of Public Works appreciates the community’s patience as it work to improve road conditions throughout the territory.
