Bridge Street is among one of many key streets in the city of Castries, and can be described as bearing significant history, having hosted for over 6 decades, the General Post Office (GPO), in addition to three of Saint Lucia’s indigenous Banks, namely, the Saint Lucia Development Bank, the First National Bank, and the Bank of Saint Lucia.
The Street runs from East to West from the bottom of Morne Fortune, all the way to its junction with Jeremie Street, and serves many intersections that run north to South within the city. It is currently a two-way street from its junction with Jeremie Street, up to its junction with Brazil Street after which the traffic flows in one direction, towards the bottom of Morne Fortune, and out of the city.
The street contains sidewalks on either sides, and facilitates the movement of pedestrians with little constraint.
In addition to five financial institutions, and Police Headquarters that are located on Bridge Street, it is also well known for many shops, offices and other commercial entities, including two pharmacies and one in-door shopping mall.
As part of plans to beautify and enhance Castries under the OECS Regional Tourism Competitiveness Project (ORTCP), the government of Saint Lucia will rehabilitate sidewalks on seven Streets in downtown Castries.
