Bog Walk Gorge Closed
The National Works Agency (NWA) is informing the public that the retrieval of the body of a trailer which overturned in a section of the Rio Cobre River along the Bog Walk Gorge earlier this morning will take some time to be completed.
According to the NWA’s Communication Manager, Stephen Shaw, the operations require the services of a wrecking company with specialized heavy duty equipment to attempt to lift the vehicle which ran over a side of the Flat Bridge.
The bridge is now inaccessible as a result and has forced the closure of the Bog Walk Gorge. Motorists are being encouraged to use alternative routes at this time as it is not yet known how soon the roadway will be reopened.
The North/South Highway, the Sligoville roadway to Bog Walk and St. John’s Road through Barry are options for motorists.
