Mo­torists can ex­pect tem­po­rary traf­fic re­stric­tions along the west­bound Churchill Roo­sevelt High­way and Beetham High­way be­tween the Aranguez Over­pass and Pi­o­neer Dri­ve from Ju­ly 13 to Ju­ly 24 as the Min­istry of Trans­port and Civ­il Avi­a­tion car­ries out pave­ment mark­ing works.

The min­istry says the works are part of its on­go­ing pro­gramme to main­tain and im­prove road safe­ty across the coun­try’s road net­work.

Work will take place dai­ly be­tween 1 pm and 6 pm. The min­istry says the sched­ule was cho­sen to co­in­cide with the school va­ca­tion pe­ri­od, when traf­fic vol­umes are typ­i­cal­ly low­er, to help min­imise dis­rup­tion.

Dur­ing the project, sec­tions of the west­bound car­riage­way will be re­strict­ed in phas­es, with mo­torists di­rect­ed to use the re­main­ing open lanes.

The min­istry is ad­vis­ing mo­torists to fol­low all traf­fic signs and the di­rec­tions of po­lice of­fi­cers and traf­fic per­son­nel on site, ex­pect tem­po­rary de­lays, use al­ter­na­tive routes where pos­si­ble, ex­er­cise cau­tion when ap­proach­ing work zones, re­duce speed and com­ply with all tem­po­rary traf­fic man­age­ment mea­sures.

The min­istry apol­o­gised for the in­con­ve­nience and thanked the pub­lic for its pa­tience and co­op­er­a­tion while the road safe­ty im­prove­ments are com­plet­ed.
