Melvin Evans Highway St. Croix

The Department of Public Works is informing the community of progress on the final phase of the MEH highway project. DPW contractor – V.I. Paving, Inc. – is laying permanent asphalt along the new roadway.

To date, the contractor has completed 35% of the work. Both the westbound and eastbound left lanes are now closed to traffic. Motorists are asked to proceed with caution.

The scope of work for this project includes milling, road reconstruction/paving and striping.

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