SPECIAL ARRANGEMENTS are being put in place for residents of the extended Grand Kadooment parade route which include sections of Warrens and Green Hill, St Michael.According to Comissioner of Police Darwin Dottin, the residents will be allowed to access their homes periodically during the parade of bands along the route.“For example, persons who live in Friendship, Lewis Gap and Storey Gap . . . those areas will not be blocked and police officers will ensure that residents have local access during intervals following the movement of bands,” he said.Meanwhile, public relations officer Inspector David Welch has issued an appeal to persons to follow the directions of police officers who will be posted along the route from Warrensto Spring Garden.He also noted that despite the addition of the Warrens/Green Hill area to the parade route, motorists will be allowed to enter the various neighbourhoods at particular periods.“Motorists will be allowed to exit from Friendship Terrace at its junction with Lodge Terrace and Green Hill Road, and proceed onto Lodge Terrace where they can rejoin the highway. “The roads on the western side of Green Hill will not be closed, but police officers will be paying special attention to where the drivers will be going. Motorists will be allowed to cross the Green Hill Road during the intervals when the bands are travelling,” Welch said.“We are appealing to motorists not to park their cars in these roads in surrounding neigbourhoods, which may cause hindrances to other motorists. Police officers on foot and mobile patrols will be patrolling these roads and communities,”he added.
