The Saint-Jean cemetery has been reopened to the public since Friday after intensive rehabilitation work and safety compliance measures. These works were deemed necessary following the new floods on January 15th.
These new floods caused further significant damage, forcing the Factory to reinforce the measures already in place to ensure the safety of visitors. Once the wall on Old Moka Road is completed, the authorities will focus on works on Broad Avenue.
In a recent press release, the Factory reassured its commitment to concessionaires “despite the difficulties encountered”, especially due to the need to reassess the damages caused to the graves by the floods. It was stated that discussions are still ongoing with the authorities in this regard. The Saint-Jean Factory indicates that in order to ensure the safety of all visitors, the same reopening conditions remain in effect. It also disclaims any responsibility in case of non-compliance with the established secure zones.
“Visitors must strictly follow the safety instructions to prevent any incidents.” It is also reminded that any activities outside the regular cemetery operations “require prior approval from the Saint-Jean Factory, including taking photos or videos within the cemetery premises.”
Overall, the Saint-Jean cemetery has reopened to the public after necessary renovations and safety upgrades following recent floods. The Factory reassures concessionaires of their commitment to address any damages caused by the floods and continues to work with the authorities to ensure the safety of all visitors. Visitors are reminded to adhere to safety instructions and seek approval for any activities beyond regular cemetery operations.
