Traffic management for the Oistins We Gatherin’ jump

The National Cultural Foundation, in partnership with ‘We Gathering’ Christ Church, is set to host a vibrant Nighttime Concert and Street Party along Oistins Main Road in Christ Church on Saturday, October 18. To accommodate the event, significant traffic adjustments will be implemented starting at 5:40 pm and lasting until the event concludes. Key road closures will be in effect from 5:40 pm to 10:30 pm, specifically on Oistins Main Road from its intersection with Oistins Hill to the junctions of Keizer Hill and Thornbury Hill. Exemptions will be granted to Transport Board Buses, Public Service Vehicles, and individuals conducting business at the fish market, though exiting vehicles must turn right onto Oistins Road. Motorists traveling east along Oistins from Maxwell Road are required to turn left at Oistins Hill, right onto Church Hill, and proceed to Thornbury Road. Those heading west along Keizer Hill must turn right at Thornbury Hill and Oistins Road, then left onto Church Hill, continuing to Canevale Road. Parking restrictions will be enforced on Oistins Road, Oistins Hill, Church Hill Road, and Thornbury Road, with exceptions only for passenger pick-up or drop-off. Violations of these rules may result in a $500 BDS fine or up to three months of imprisonment. Emergency vehicles and those operated by the Barbados Police Service, Barbados Defence Force, and Barbados Fire Service are exempt. Police officers will be stationed to manage traffic, and the Barbados Police Service has expressed gratitude for the public’s cooperation and understanding, apologizing for any inconvenience caused.
