Through traffic will not be permitted on the King Edward VII Memorial Hospital campus between Point Finger Road and Berry Hill Road for three days from Wednesday.

The Bermuda Hospitals Board said the restriction, which applies to pedestrians as well as vehicles, is to allow the through road to be resurfaced.

The road will reopen on Saturday.

The BHB said: “People will be able to access the emergency department, the main acute care wing entrance and the ACW visitor parking lot from Point Finger Road.

“Access from Berry Hill Road will stop at the Botanical Gardens gate to KEMH.”

Members of the public were asked to adhere to all signage, barricades and directions of personnel at the site in the interest of safety.
