Road Marking
The day team of the Road Marking crew of the Ministry of Transport and Works (MTW) will be replacing and repairing damaged signs in various parishes, Monday to Friday between 9.00 a.m. and 3.00 p.m.
Motorists are urged to avoid speeding through work areas while road markings are being done, as this endangers the lives of workers and damages the freshly painted road markings.
