The rehabilitation work on the Pine Peace Basketball Court on St. John began this morning, according to a press release issued Monday by the V.I. Department of Public Works.
“The department has contracted the services of Stone Masonry Inc. in the amount of $368,620. The scope of the project includes addressing the drainage by elevating the entire property and installing a subsurface drainage system. The project will also incorporate the reconstruction and resurfacing of the basketball court, installation of new backboards and bleachers, and the construction of a new restroom facility,” said Public Works Commissioner Darryl Smalls.
Smalls said the basketball court will be closed while the construction and rehabilitation work is ongoing. “I encourage anyone who goes near the site to adhere to safety warnings and other directional signs.”
