Have you EVER been held up at the Causeway bridge? I think we have been held up once there, for about two minutes.
It is concerning to me that this has happened, as the Causeway is not that old. It seems like maybe proper maintenance has not been done?

I guess maybe it may be based on the time of year, as we'd never had any issues with it. And the one time it was closed, it was like two minutes, not like the other bridge, which can be a good half hour, to get all the traffic cleared.

The bridges are part of life of living in a safe harbor lagoon. Normal. We never bitched about it. SXMScubaman. Maybe you should go to an island without bridges? Plenty of those. irina Did I say it caused a problem for me. NO. So I don't appreciate your comment. I enjoy St Maarten and traffic is not a problem for me. I navigate the island and the bridge openings and plan accordingly.

That doesn't sound like good news for the motorcycle rider, dueling with a bus. Didn't see anything about it in the DH today, but I think there is no paper because of the holiday.
