Nawasa: Network upgrade works

The National Water and Sewerage Authority (Nawasa) has announced the official commencement of its significant network enhancement project along the Mt Kumar to Tempe corridor in St George, scheduled for Monday, February 9, 2026. This long-anticipated infrastructure improvement will impact multiple communities including Snug Corner, La Mode, Hubbard’s, and the De Caul Service Centre.

In coordination with the Royal Grenada Police Force and contracted partners, Nawasa has developed an extensive traffic management strategy to maintain safe transit for both vehicles and pedestrians throughout the construction period. The carefully designed plan emphasizes public safety protocols while ensuring uninterrupted access to essential services and minimizing interference during high-traffic hours.

Construction-related traffic controls will be implemented following the morning rush hour to alleviate potential congestion. Adaptive management approaches will be employed based on roadway dimensions, topographic challenges, and construction requirements, utilizing both one-way traffic systems and stop-and-go operations as conditions dictate.

Certified traffic wardens will be positioned at all active construction zones to facilitate orderly movement, with dynamic adjustments to traffic patterns based on real-time volume assessments and evolving safety considerations. Nawasa expresses appreciation for public understanding and cooperation during this essential water infrastructure modernization initiative.
