MEN FOUND DEAD OBT Men found dead The bodies of two men were recovered by Police on Saturday morning, although neither of the two incidents, which are not connected, are being treated as suspicious.

At about 8 a.m., following several reports from members of the public, Police discovered the body of an unconscious man slumped over the steering wheel of a van on Middle Road, Warwick.

An ambulance was called to the scene and took the man to the King Edward VII Memorial Hospital. Efforts to revive the man were unsuccessful and he was pronounced dead.

And just half an hour later, following a second anonymous tip-off, officers were called to a derelict building on Till's Hill, Pembroke where they discovered the partially decomposed body of a man. A pathologist was called to the scene and pronounced the cause of death as "non-suspicious''.

ROAD TO BE RE-OPENED GVT Road to be re-opened Works and Engineering Minister Alex Scott will officially open the eastern section of Water Street, St. George's next week.

The work included the placement of overhead utility wires underground and upgrading and installation of water and sewage lines, the erection of period street lighting and replacing tarmac with special pavement stones.

The Corporation of St. George's, the St. George's Foundation and the Ministry of Works funded the project.

Improvements to the town are already receiving praise from local residents, according to chairman of the St. George's Foundation Louis Mowbray.

"These changes are not just about cosmetics. They're about bringing us closer to the history of St. George's -- a town of major historical significance within the western hemisphere. These improvements truly enhance the period character of St. George's'' said Mr. Mowbray.

The opening will take place at 10 a.m. on Friday.

GIBBONS PLAN APPROVED PLN Gibbons plan approved Another major construction project is planned for the middle of Hamilton.

Gibbons Deposit Company is hoping to expand its offices into a five storey building to be erected next door.

The Development applications Board (DAB) has granted in principle approval for the project but final approval and a building permit are still needed.

Head architect Jim Kaulbach said it will take eight weeks to erect the structure but would not be drawn on a cost.
