The Committee on Budget, Appropriations and Finance of the Legislature of the U.S. Virgin Islands convened on June 10, 2025, to discuss ongoing infrastructure projects and funding allocations. A significant focus of the meeting was the status of road repair projects funded by previous bond issuances.

During the session, officials provided updates on several road projects initiated under the 2015 bond issuance. The Mahogany Road project is currently under construction, while preparations are underway to solicit bids for the Springcut Road project within the next couple of months, pending approval from the Federal Highway Administration. These updates reflect the ongoing commitment to improving the territory's infrastructure.

Additionally, the committee discussed the allocation of $28 million in new funding aimed at further road repairs. This funding is expected to support additional projects, although specific details on which roads will be prioritized were not disclosed during the meeting.

Senator Marisa James was recognized to address the committee, indicating her engagement in the discussions surrounding these critical infrastructure developments. The meeting underscored the importance of maintaining and enhancing the territory's roadways, which are vital for transportation and economic activity.

As the committee continues to navigate funding and project timelines, the outcomes of these discussions will play a crucial role in the future of road infrastructure in the U.S. Virgin Islands.
