KINGSTON, Jamaica — Jamaican law enforcement officials have issued a stringent parking prohibition along the critical Palisadoes thoroughfare in Kingston during New Year’s Eve celebrations. The comprehensive ban, specifically targeting Wednesday, December 31st, expressly forbids all vehicular parking for fireworks viewing purposes along this strategic roadway.
Police authorities have clarified that absolutely no vehicles will receive authorization to park on the main roadway under any circumstances. The regulatory measures extend further to prohibit parking on the right-hand side of the road leading toward Norman Manley International Airport during a designated timeframe from 5:00 PM on Wednesday through 12:30 AM on Thursday.
Motorists who disregard these officially mandated restrictions will face immediate legal consequences, including criminal prosecution and compulsory vehicle towing. The Jamaica Constabulary Force emphasizes that these measures constitute essential public safety protocols rather than mere traffic suggestions, designed to ensure uninterrupted emergency access and prevent potentially dangerous congestion during high-density holiday celebrations.
