Barbados: The Ministry of Transport and Works in Barbados is advising the residents to note expected traffic delays because of the scheduled repair work from August 12 to 16, 2024.
The repair work has already commenced at different locations, with drainage cleaning work ongoing in 18 areas and watercourse cleaning in five other areas.
The ongoing repair work in Barbados is expected to bring along different problems among the locals including a disruption in their daily lives. The residents are warned to face increased traffic in the noted areas, especially in peak hours.
Additionally, a potential delay could also be expected in delivery services and emergency services due to road closures.
