Road infrastructure upgrades are set to begin on a key stretch of Grenada’s public road network next year, bringing with them temporary traffic changes that will affect thousands of motorists traveling through the island’s northern corridor. The Traffic Division of the Royal Grenada Police Force (RGPF) has issued a formal public announcement outlining the adjusted traffic regime that will be enforced during the milling works on Beaulieu Public Road, running between the Mt Kumar junction and Snug Corner intersection.
The 14-day construction period is scheduled to kick off on Monday, October 19, 2026, with daily works taking place between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. Throughout this timeframe, full through access on the affected 2-kilometer stretch will be restricted, requiring all motorists to follow pre-planned diversion routes to reach their destinations.
For drivers heading from Grand Etang toward the capital city of St. George’s, the mandatory diversion will take them off the planned works route at the junction of Boca Public Road and Vendôme Public Road. Motorists will be required to turn left onto Boca Public Road and rejoin the main network at Snug Corner junction to continue their journey toward St. George’s.
Multiple entry restrictions are also in place for drivers approaching the work zone from other directions. Drivers traveling along New Hampshire/Constantine Public Road will only be permitted to turn right onto Mt Kumar Public Road, with no straight access onto the closed stretch of Beaulieu Public Road allowed. For motorists traveling along the lower section of Beaulieu Public Road heading toward Snug Corner junction, the only permitted maneuver is a right turn onto Boca Public Road to bypass the work area.
In a supplementary note, RGPF clarified that drivers on the New Hampshire/Constantine Public Road route seeking to reach St. George’s will follow the same diversion route as Grand Etang-originating traffic: a right turn onto Boca Public Road at its Vendôme junction, before exiting the diversion at Snug Corner junction.
Law enforcement officials are urging all road users to plan their journeys in advance, allow extra travel time, and pay close attention to on-site traffic signage and directions from traffic officers during the construction period. The RGPF says the road works are a critical upgrade to improve the longevity and safety of the high-traffic public road, and has called for patience and cooperation from residents and commuters throughout the two-week project.
