U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS – The Department of Public Works (DPW) confirms that a traffic accident involving a Virgin Islands Transit (VITRAN) mass transit bus occurred this morning at approximately 7:39 a.m. on Route 75 near the Titan Gas Station in the La Grande Princess area of St. Croix.
The incident involved the Route 6 bus and a privately operated vehicle. Emergency responders were dispatched to the scene and are actively investigating the circumstances surrounding the collision.
No further details are available at this time, as the investigation remains ongoing. Updates will be provided as more information becomes available. DPW thanks the public for their patience and understanding.
The Department of Public Works (DPW) updates the community on progress at the Fort Christian Parking Lot Renovations Project on St. Thomas. DPW contractor — Grace Civil LLC. – is currently repairing asphalt areas that were damaged during the recent carnival village. They are also in the process of preparing for the installation of bollards and mapping out lines for striping to commence. Numbering parking spaces will follow shortly after.
Next on the project scope list is the continuation of software updates to the ticketing machines/gates, and finalizing construction at the entry and exit areas.
To minimize the impact on motorists, DPW has coordinated with the Virgin Islands Police Department (VIPD) and the Virgin Islands Port Authority (VIPA) to provide alternate parking on the Veterans Drive waterfront apron for the project’s duration.
