Interruption to the traffic flow will be in the vicinity of Cost U Less and Kentucky Fried Chicken; motorists need to keep this in mind when making their commute during the evening hours of Thursday and Friday, and during the day on Saturday and Sunday.

A detour will be instituted via Daisy Road (next to Cost U Less) through Isis Road onto the Bush Road for those coming out of Cul de Sac. Motorists on their commute from the Philipsburg area may also use this detour.

On Thursday evening March 13, road work activities will be taking place from 8.00pm to 12.00am; Friday, March 14, from 9.00pm to 12.00am; Saturday, March 15, from 7.00am to 7.00pm; and Sunday, March 16 from 7.00am to 7.00pm.

The traffic interruption on the aforementioned days and times is in connection with water drainage challenges in that particular area and putting in place the necessary infrastructure in place to resolve the issue.

Motorists and pedestrians are also advised that it is against the law for tampering or removing a traffic barricade or any other piece of government property that is being used to make motorists and pedestrians aware of road work activities, and it is punishable by law.

Ministry VROMI apologizes for any inconvenience that the road works activities may cause.
