Road Marking
Road Marking
The road marking crews of the Ministry of Transport and Works (MTW) will repaint the Wynter Crawford (Six Roads) roundabout, St. Philip. Centre lines are to be painted near the St. George Primary School to Jordans while stop lines will be done from Gun Hill/St. Judes Junction to Groves Corner, St. George. Work will be done Monday to Thursday between 3:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m., weather permitting.
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.
