Free movement of traffic between the French side and the Dutch side has been restored at Bellevue-Cole Bay border and at the Belle Plaine (French Quarter)-Belvedere border. This means no security check and no need for passes or waivers for Dutch side residents to go to and move around in the French side.
At the time of this post, the containers blocking the free movement at Oyster Pond and at Cupecoy are still in place.
For the time being, there is no official information from the French side authorities that the controls have been officially lifted as was announced two weeks ago. The opening is solely based on the non-presence of border control officers at the two checkpoints.
As a reminder, the lifting of the last restrictions was subject to the ratification of a "memorandum of understanding" drawn up by the Regional Health Agency between the French authorities and the government of St. Maarten.

Bahston-- the remaining containers, you mean? Elaine already posted that the other border points were now open.

Correction - I reread the document, and it IS clearly stated that the containers are being removed from the border crossings where there were only containers blocking the road.
