WESTERN BUREAU: With restoration work in Phase Two of the Estuary Housing Scheme in St James now at an advanced stage, some residents last Thursday indicated that their fears about being caught in a compromised situation during the next hurricane season have been allayed. Following Hurricane Melissa last October, floodwaters caused a section of the community to collapse, transforming part of the road into a 60- to 70-foot-deep ditch, leaving sewage and water pipes either busted or protruding.
