Not the best face forward, considering they are taking cruise ship passengers there.

Yes the lot between Atrium and the market garden was cleared yesterday. Now if they could find a way to drain Lake Atrium, was hard to walk past there after heavy rain overnight.

It would help though if they cleared more of it by the road so the water on the street by the Atrium could run away

The water on the street by Atrium has been a problem for years, long before Irma.

Correct, it goes back many years to being a problem there. No proper drainage and a low area are not a good combination.

They have tried to fix this water problem many times over the years, but nothing was successful. They need ditches on both sides of the road to fix this problem, but the road is too narrow for these. Moving some properties and widening the road is the only answer and it seems that is not going to happen.
