2 October 2025

We began work on the construction of the Esplanade sea wall on 30 June 2025. All material for the repairs must be shipped to the island. The sea wall is being constructed in sections and good progress has been made. Due to the location and environmental factors, the work has taken longer than planned. We expect to complete the last section in November.
