Share post:

A crew from the Richmond Depot of the Ministry of Transport and Works
(MTW) has begun removing temporary wooden drain covers along Princess Alice
Highway and Harbour Road in The City.

The covers were installed as a safety precaution to conceal open drains for
the recently concluded ICC Cricket World Cup, and Crop Over’s Foreday Morning
Jam and Grand Kadooment.
While the road will not be closed, due to the nature of the work and the
equipment being used, one lane of the road may be partially closed and slight
delays should be expected.
Pedestrians and motorists are urged to proceed with care. MTW thanks the
road users for their understanding and cooperation.
