Road Marking
The road marking crews of the Ministry of Transport and Works (MTW) will repaint and install reflective studs along the Ronald Mapp Highway to St. Lucy Parish Church. 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.
