In an address following the disaster passing the territory, Premier Fahie also said there has been no serious injuries, crimes, or problems in relation to businesses being compromised.

“We did, however, experience some major flooding on the outskirts of Road Town with some damage to buildings reported and debris on some roads in those areas,” Fahie said.

According to the Premier, the Minister for Transportation, Works and Utilities, Kye Rymer and his team have already begun to address what he described as hotspot areas.

“I am optimistic that the preventative work that your government has been doing over the past few weeks to clean and clear ghuts and other major watercourses of debris would have helped to reduce the impact of the heavy rains on vulnerable areas. We will continue to do this throughout the territory,” he added.

Wednesday’s hurricane was the first to impact the territory for the 2019 Atlantic Hurricane Season.
