I'm with the town council on this one. I got stopped at the bridge heading south and was told it was closed. My wife got out and walked to town, I drove back home, if I need to get to town I can take the boat. Big deal. Let's get the new road ready for Christmas.
The pathetic whining going on here is way out of proportion to the inconvenience being "suffered." Is the garbage being posted here REALLY representative of the people of Ambergris Caye who worked so hard to get the island back on its feet after it was devastated by Hurricane Keith in 2000? Now THAT was an inconvenience.
Furthermore, no one should be using this as an excuse to lay off employees without pay. I refer to the whining, moaning letter on the first post in this thread. I'm embarrassed to think that potential tourists reading this message board would actually imagine that the majority of people living on Isla Bonita are like that. This is something we can all work around and that will (or ought to) be forgotten in a week.
Well said. I agree. It is about time these people stopped whining at everything to do with the NORTH!. The road needs to be finished, the ferry service is a great way to travel North or South, a while ago the same people up North were comlaining about the amount of traffic crossing the bridge. well now there's none.
Like was said just work around it, it is not like the north is totally cut off. The road needs to be finished, let them do the work, you will all be happy when the road is no longer a mud pit.
