Roughly two hours after announcing that the Three Miles overpass bridge in St Andrew will be closed for 26 hours, the National Works Agency (NWA) says the planned activity has been postponed until further notice.

The state agency did not give a reason for the postponement but has apologized to the public “for any inconvenience caused”.
