ROAD WORKS ACTIVITIES FOR JULY 21 – 25, 2025

Road Marking 

The Road Marking crew of the Ministry of Transport and Works (MTW) will repaint the traffic lights junction at Eagle Hall as well as the traffic lights junction at Baxters Road, St. Michael. The crew will also remark BET Hill to the Samuel Jackman Prescod Institute (SJPI) Roundabout heading south. Work will be done Monday to Thursday, between 6:00 p.m. and 4:00 a.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.
