Soufrière Jetty access restricted amid ongoing construction, says MP
A recent online video has sparked public concern over the denial of access to Soufrière’s main jetty for boat operators and passengers. However, Soufrière MP Emma Hippolyte has clarified that the restriction is essential due to safety risks and ongoing construction activities. During a pre-cabinet press briefing, Hippolyte revealed that the main jetty remains severely damaged, despite a temporary repair last year that permitted limited offloading. She emphasized that the area is currently unsafe for use. ‘All boat owners were notified that the main jetty is off-limits for now. The ongoing construction makes it hazardous,’ she stated. As an alternative, boat operators have been directed to three designated areas for passenger offloading. Hippolyte apologized to affected visitors but stressed the importance of boat owners adhering to guidelines issued by the Soufrière Regional Development Foundation. She also highlighted broader waterfront development plans, including major upgrades tied to Global Ports Holding and other government projects. ‘The entire Soufrière waterfront will undergo a transformation,’ she said, mentioning the construction of a new Soufrière Administrative Building. ‘We are conducting soil tests to ensure the building’s foundation is robust and durable,’ she added.
