The current phase of works which is scheduled to restart today, Thursday, April 18, will take place between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM, and continue over the next two weeks from Monday to Friday.

During this period, mains will be replaced in the vicinity of Lester Vaughn School and work may impact residents of Platinum Avenue, Primrose Avenue, Sunflower Drive, the Gabriel Edgehill Funeral Home, and the surrounding areas.
