The Ministry of Works for Antigua and Barbuda has issued an official public advisory notifying residents, commuters, and local business operators of imminent large-scale infrastructure upgrades slated for a section of All Saints Road, positioned in the immediate vicinity of the Sunshine Laundromat. Scheduled to kick off at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, November 5, 2026, the construction initiative will remain in active operation until all project milestones are fully completed. To mitigate disruption to regional mobility, traffic management teams will enforce a single-lane alternating access system across the work zone, alongside clearly marked detour routes for through traffic. Trained flag personnel will be stationed at key access points to coordinate vehicle movement and prevent bottlenecks, while standardized directional signage will be posted along both inbound and outbound stretches of the affected corridor to guide motorists safely around active work areas. Critically, all permanent residents residing within blocks of the construction site will retain full, unrestricted local access to their properties at all stages of the project. Road safety officials are urging all passing motorists to exercise heightened caution, strictly follow posted guidance and on-site staff directions, and account for the presence of heavy construction machinery operating within close proximity to public travel routes. Local authorities have confirmed that every commercial business located along the impacted segment of All Saints Road will remain fully operational throughout the entire construction timeline, with no mandated closures tied to the infrastructure upgrades. This work forms a core component of the government’s broader, multi-phase All Saints Road Project, designed to upgrade longstanding roadway infrastructure to improve long-term safety, durability, and travel efficiency for the surrounding community. All affected stakeholders are being advised to proactively adjust their regular travel schedules to build in extra time for potential minor delays during the construction period. Members of the public with questions or requiring additional project details may place telephonic inquiries directly to the Project Implementation Management Unit at the contact number 562-9173 during standard operating hours.
