$1.5M contract signed for Sea Cows Bay road paving
The contract, signed on Friday, January 16, 2026, is for the paving of approximately eight thousand linear feet of road in Sea Cows Bay, for a total of one million, five hundred and forty-five thousand, four hundred and sixteen dollars and twenty-nine cents ($1,545,416.29).
Minister for Communications and Works Hon Kye M. Rymer (R5) said the project went through the tendering process.
Scope of works
The project includes the reconstruction of sidewalks, the construction of new slipper drains and curb walls, the complete demolition of the existing concrete and asphalt road surface, excavation work, and the supply and compaction of new subbase and base material.
The project is expected to be completed within three months.
“This is our preparatory work in terms of making sure that the road is a properly constructed road that we expect to last for an extended period of time,” Hon Rymr said.
He commended the previous work of E & K Trucking & Construction, saying, “You work with efficiency, and we look forward to having this job completed on time and on budget. We look forward to the commencement of these works, and this would bring an ease to the motoring public that traverses the area.”
Premier and Minister of Finance Dr the Hon Natalio D. Wheatley (R7) said the road has been complained about over several months, especially since the asphalt was removed.
He said the project has been a long time coming, and the people of the western end of Tortola should be very pleased with its commencement.
“We will have a much smoother ride once these works are completed and the road is asphalted.”
Public partnership needed
Director of E & K Trucking & Construction Services, Mr Enos Z. Aaron, thanked the Government for awarding his company the contract. He urged the public’s cooperation when the works begin to ensure the smooth flow of traffic.
“We would like to let the public know that this is a road that needs to be done, and also to work with us, and we will work with you all in the best way. We would have all the signs and all the necessary things that we need to have out there to make the traffic flow frequently.”
