On Tuesday 21st Aug 2018, the opening of the St Julien Bypass (co-project between the Road Development Authority, Mauritius and Transinvest Contruction Ltd) was inaugurated by Hon Pravind Kumar JUGNAUTH, Prime Minister of Mauritius. The St Julien Bypass starts with a roundabout along Higginson (B24) Road before the village of St Julien d’Hotman, bypasses the village over a total stretch of 3.5km and ends with a T-Junction along B24 Road.
The project will:
- Improve road geometry and enhance safety for both pedestrians and vehicles.
- Bypass existing built up areas at St Julien d’Hotman Village, ensuring the safety of residents.
- Decrease travel time and vehicle operating costs.
