Mariners are being asked to avoid the Morgan’s Point area as remediation works at the former baselands continues.

Government has issued notices, published in yesterday’s edition of The Royal Gazette, announcing the closure of Morgan’s Point Bay and George’s Bay.

According the advertisement, both bays will be closed to the public because of demolition work to be done which could potentially be dangerous to vessels and crews.

Along with signs on the shoreline and a flashing amber light in the middle of a series of red buoys, government vessels will be patrolling the mouths of both bays to prevent unlawful access to the areas.

Cleanup work at the site began last April in advance of a proposed tourism development including multiple hotels along with condominiums, restaurants and a spa.

Developers Craig Christensen, Brian Duperreault and Nelson Hunt formally acquired the land last year in a land swap arrangement organised to protect the Southlands estate in Warwick.
