The community of Saint-Martin is informing users and professionals of the sea of the reopening of the Sandy-Ground Bridge, the tests carried out after the repair work of the cylinder having been conclusive. The bridge will reopen at the usual times, from this Thursday March 07, 2019. Closing at 9 am, then at 17 pm.
A first phase of work intended to repair the jack on the Sandy Ground bridge was carried out by the community at the end of February at a cost of € 22. Once this operation has been completed, the bridge is working again when it has been stopped for several weeks.
A second phase of works will take place during 2019 and will make it possible to carry out a heavier intervention aimed at completely rehabilitating the bridge opening system. The market to select the service provider has just been launched.

WEATHER VIGILANCE PROCEDURE
When a vigilance ORANGE, the lifting of the SANDY GROUND Bridge will continue to be assured subject to weather conditions and Police orders.
The bridge will remain closed as soon as a RED vigilance.
Regardless of any alert or vigilance, once the winds have reached 20 knots (37 km / h), the bridge will remain closed.
If an alert is triggered, maintain permanent monitoring of VHF channel 16 as well as weather information.
The Simpson Bay lagoon is not considered a shelter from storms, past phenomena have largely demonstrated this to us. A decree was issued to this effect on May 26, 2017 by the Collectivity of Saint-Martin.
