Work starts on Albuoy’s Point improvements
Created: Jun 14, 2021 08:00 AM
Work has started on a programme of improvements at Albuoy’s Point.
Undertaken by the City of Hamilton, there will be more seats and shade, spotlights for trees and improved pedestrian access.
In addition, there will be a more prominent spot for the monument to the Second World War armed merchant cruiser HMS Jervis Bay, which had left from Bermuda and went down with almost all hands defending an Atlantic convoy against the German heavy cruiser Admiral Scheer in 1940.
The Bill Ming sculpture Against da Tide, previously outside the former Bank of Bermuda building, will also be installed in the park.
The electricity supply will also be upgraded and a new sewage line installed.
