Due to the inclement weather over the weekend on the island, the water levels at the Graeme Hall Swamp in Christ Church are currently elevated.

As a result, the Drainage Division of the Ministry of Transport and Works (MTW) has opened the sluice gate to reduce these levels.

The gate will remain open until approximately 8.00 a.m. on Tuesday, November 19, 2024.

Although the beach at Worthing has not been closed, the Drainage Division is assuring the public that the discolouration seen is as a result of leaves, mud and debris and not as a result of sewage.

MTW apologises for any inconvenience and thank the public for its patience.(PR/MTW)
