VIWMA ANNOUNCES FINAL PAVEMENT RESTORATION FOR SAVAN GUT SEWER LINE REPLACEMENT PROJECT

 

(St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands) – The Virgin Islands Waste Management Authority (VIWMA) advises the public that the Savan neighborhood is scheduled to undergo pavement restoration as part of the final phase of the Savan Gut Sewer Line Replacement Project. Paving will be conducted by the Authority’s contractor, SD&C, Inc., during the week of April 13, 2026.

 

To ensure the successful completion of this work, all parked and abandoned vehicles must be removed from the roadway prior to the start of paving activities, effective immediately. Vehicles left in place will prevent crews from restoring the roadway surface. Paving will take place on Vester Gade between Irvin Brownie Brown Street and Percy DeJongh Drive.

 

VIWMA is working in coordination with the St. Thomas Administrator’s Office to tag and remove abandoned or non‑compliant vehicles from the area.

 

The Authority appreciates the community’s cooperation as we complete this important infrastructure improvement for the residents of Savan and the wider St. Thomas community.
