Just came from visiting some of the sites where our hard-working crews were preparing for the approach of Tropical Storm Karen. 

I wish to thank my acting PS Jeremy Hodge, my hardworking team at the Public Works Department, Water and Sewerage Department and Virgin Islands Fire Services and all other agencies that are working diligently and collectively to make a difference as Karen passes the vicinity of the BVI. 
I thank all of you for swiftly and selflessly taking actions to ensure that as the rain draws near and as it comes our people are safe. 

At the Ministry of Transportation, Work and Utilities safety is our number one priority. 

I stopped by the PWD’s compound to thank them for their commitment. I pray that God continues to keep their families safe as they continue to keep us safe. In this weather, they surely need raincoats to keep them dry. Health comes first! 

 Be Ready and more importantly STAY READY. Be safe everyone.

We serve a BIG GOD!
