I ran into the road block this morning around 10:00am. I am staying at Princess Heights but like the beaches up in Orient Bay. I went back to get some lunch at Simpson Bay and wanted to head to Mullet Bay beach. I decided to head up to Marigot then over to Orient. Bad idea.

The police had the road blocked off at the rotary by Ansel Beach and had to go al the way around again. it seems the road block basically forced traffic along the western coast - the roadways were incredibly incredibly congested. Basically the problem with the road block was just not traffic in and out of Orient Bay area.

This site is great! I just found it with Google Search for "Road Block" and "Orient Bay" or something. nice find.
