    Bermuda lost 4 of it’s people to a terrible hurricane in 2003 and since had 13 years to rebuild a modern causeway/bridge but it has done nothing…NADA!

    Hang your head in shame!

  2. who cares most says:

    The decision to have one lane open on the causeway was a very bad idea.
    Don’t no who made that call but to find out that vehicles where driven across it was crazy.
    I wonder who would have taken the blame had an incident occured.
    The Minister of Mational Secutity should ensure this practice doesn’t continue.
    How much money was wasted in this exercise?
