George's Hallow Access Road Reopens
The alternative access road at George's Hallow reopened on Monday, November 17, 2025, restoring a key route into Road Town. The timing is expected to ease congestion for motorists attending the Ubersoca Cruise event in Road Town on Tuesday, November 18.
The alternative access road at George's Hallow reopened to traffic on Monday, November 17, 2025, providing motorists with renewed routing options into Road Town ahead of a busy Ubersoca Cruise event on Tuesday, November 18. Drivers approaching Road Town from the west are being advised of the primary diversion routes now available.
One route diverts traffic through MacNamara, continuing onto Wailing Road and Fort Charlotte and exiting onto Paul Wattley Road. An additional option routes motorists via Porter Road to Titley Road, then along Russell Hill before exiting onto Paul Wattley Drive. Motorists may also use the alternative corridor through Sea Cows Bay to access Paul Wattley Road directly.
The refurbishment and reopening were completed under the supervision of the Ministry of Communications and Works. Officials say the restored access will help relieve congestion in central Road Town, particularly during special events and peak travel times, and will improve access for emergency services and commercial deliveries.
Local drivers should note that signage and temporary traffic management measures may remain in place while authorities monitor traffic flow and finalise any finishing works. Motorists are urged to allow extra travel time, follow posted detours and directions from traffic officers, and exercise caution on unfamiliar stretches of road.
For residents and businesses in Sea Cows Bay, MacNamara and surrounding communities, the reopened link is expected to shorten certain commutes and provide a useful contingency route when the main artery into Road Town is congested or closed for events or maintenance. The ministry has not announced further major works in the immediate area, but says it will continue to assess road conditions and make adjustments as needed.
The reopening comes at a time of heightened demand on Road Town roads because of the Ubersoca Cruise, which organisers expect will bring increased numbers of visitors and vehicles into the capital. Authorities remind drivers to plan ahead, consider parking options outside the busiest zones, and use alternative routes where possible to reduce delays.
According to reporting by Virgin Islands News Online, the project was concluded under the purview of the Ministry of Communications and Works. Motorists seeking real-time updates should watch for signage and official advisories from the ministry and local police.
