Balthazar Bridge: read the project record, not just a headline.

Ministry of Infrastructure · project-page photo; capture date not stated

Claim / question under review

What is documented for the planned replacement of Balthazar Bridge?

What the evidence says

The Ministry of Infrastructure lists a design-and-supervision project starting in 2024 and labels it ongoing. It names Beston Consulting Ltd and links the planned flood-resilient replacement to World Bank financing through the Grenada Resilience Improvement Project.

The page describes the existing bridge’s flood vulnerability and the intended replacement. Its listing is evidence of a documented project, not proof that construction is finished. A live ministry page may also lag current progress; check for a dated construction or completion notice.

The cover photograph is from the Ministry’s project page and is not presented as a completed replacement bridge.
