Behind every strong family and thriving community, there are fathers whose love, guidance, and quiet sacrifices help build the foundation for a better tomorrow.

At BRAGSA, we celebrate the dedicated fathers who show up each day with strength, commitment, and care—balancing the demands of family, work, and community with pride.

In recognition of Father’s Day, we took a moment to express our appreciation to the fathers on our staff by presenting them with small tokens of appreciation for all that they do.

To all fathers—thank you for leading with love, standing with purpose, and helping to build stronger families and communities.

Happy Father’s Day from all of us at BRAGSA! 💙🧡

On June 17, 2026, BRAGSA hosted another session in its 2026 Staff Resilience Workshop Series, focusing on burnout awareness and prevention.

The session was facilitated by Karen Johnson, Social Worker at the Milton Cato Memorial Hospital (MCMH) and Counsellor with the Employee Assistance Programme (EAP), who engaged staff in discussions on recognizing the signs of burnout, managing stress, and prioritizing mental and emotional well-being.

This initiative forms part of BRAGSA’s ongoing commitment to promoting a healthier, more supportive, and resilient workplace for all employees.

Work continues on the rubble retaining wall in Spring area in Fancy, North Windward, following the failure of the previous wall which compromised the roadway.

BRAGSA has completed the foundation for the new rubble wall, which spans 14.27 metres in length and 1.68 metres in width.

Construction of the rubble wall is progressing steadily, with approximately 15 percent of the wall completed to date. The project is expected to enhance the stability of the area and protect the roadway from further deterioration.

Today, BRAGSA hosted an important stakeholder session on the use of PolyPavement technology as a potential alternative for improving access along unpaved and feeder roads across St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

PolyPavement is a soil-binding technology that can transform existing soil into a durable, dust-free road surface, reducing the need for traditional paving materials in certain applications.

The session was attended by Hon. Nigel Stephenson, Minister of Transport, Infrastructure and Physical Planning; Hon. Kaschaka Cupid, Minister of Youth, Sports, Culture and Creative Industries; Chief Engineer (Ag.) Mr Amos Cruickshank; BRAGSA’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Kem Bartholomew; and other key technical and stakeholder representatives.

The presentation was delivered by Mr. Curtis Reid, PolyPavement Technician, who outlined how the technology may support more cost-effective, resilient, and sustainable road maintenance solutions, particularly for agricultural communities, tourism sites, and other hard-to-reach areas.

The initiative will be tested and monitored to assess its durability, suitability, and potential impact on road users, farmers, communities, and public infrastructure.
