The Ministry of Transport, Works and Water Resources’ contractor, C.O Williams Construction Limited, commenced work today, Wednesday, January 26, along a section of Highway 5 between Culpepper Road and Marley Vale, St. Philip.
However, due to the construction of a culvert, the road is closed to all vehicular traffic and will be closed again tomorrow, Thursday January 27.
Motorists are asked to divert through Golden Grove Road, Thickets and Three Houses. All road users are encouraged to obey the signage and the instructions of the flag personnel and to proceed with extreme caution.
For the remainder of the project, which is expected to last approximately two weeks, traffic will be restricted to one lane. The work will be carried out between 7.30 a.m. and 5.30 p.m.
The Ministry of Transport Works and Water Resources apologises for the inconvenience and thank the public for its patience and understanding. (MTW)
