No account, no name, no email. You can turn this off from this page at any time,
and doing so deletes the subscription rather than pausing it.
Times are Curacao local time
(Saturday 12 September).
Bridges open on schedule for boat traffic; the road is closed while they do.
Openings can be added or cancelled at short notice for commercial traffic
and weather — this page shows the published schedule, not a live sensor.
