The Antigua and Barbuda Ministry of Works has issued a public notification of upcoming major infrastructure improvements scheduled for a stretch of All Saints Road, located between Bottom Village and the Pentecostal Church. As part of the government-led All Saints Road Project, this overnight construction work will require a full detour of through traffic, with the diversion schedule set to take effect from 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday, April 28, 2026, through to 7:00 a.m. the following morning.
For motorists traveling outbound from the main urban center toward All Saints, routing adjustments have been clearly mapped. Any driver approaching the Midway Service Station whose destination lies past the construction zone will be redirected onto the main thoroughfare running through Freeman’s Village to bypass the worksite. Inbound travelers heading toward the capital St. John’s face a different diversion: drivers approaching the All Saints Service Station with destinations beyond the closed stretch of road will be rerouted via Jonas Road to continue their journey.
Notably, local residents who live in the immediate area surrounding the worksite will retain full access to their properties throughout the construction period, and all commercial operations along the affected corridor will remain open for business as usual.
Officials have stressed that construction crews will be operating large, heavy-duty machinery in close proximity to the work zone, so all road users are strongly encouraged to adhere strictly to posted detour signs and instructions from on-site personnel to maintain maximum safety for everyone traveling through the area. Project stakeholders and regular commuters are asked to proactively adjust their travel timetables ahead of the scheduled work to account for potential minor delays caused by the diversion.
Members of the public with questions about the road work or detour arrangement can reach out to the Project Implementation Management Unit directly via telephone at 562-9173 for additional information.
