Road Marking
The Road Marking crew of the Ministry of Transport and Works (MTW) will be installing reflective studs (cat-eyes) along the Mighty Grynner Highway. Work will be done Monday to Thursday, between 6:00 p.m. and 4:00 a.m., weather permitting. The day crew will be installing signage in various areas in Bridgetown while road marking will be done in White Park Road, St. Michael, 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.
