Motorists and local residents in Grenada will soon face adjusted traffic patterns around the Carenage district, as law enforcement has officially announced new permanent-until-further-notice traffic regulations to accommodate a critical infrastructure upgrade. The upcoming project, a full sewer line installation led by the National Water and Sewerage Authority (NAWASA), will trigger the adjusted road rules starting Thursday, 7 May 2026. The changes will only take effect during overnight hours, running daily from 9 p.m. to 3 a.m. to minimize disruption to peak daytime travel.
Under the new framework, the main Carenage public road will switch to a single one-way flow, with all traffic required to travel toward the Sendall tunnel direction. Additional route restrictions will be in place on H A Blaize Street: drivers moving along this thoroughfare will be banned from making right turns onto Hughes Street. Instead, all vehicles must continue along H A Blaize Street until connecting to the Tanteen Public Road to continue their journeys.
The Royal Grenada Police Force (RGPF), which issued the official public notification from the Office of the Commissioner of Police, has acknowledged that the detours and route changes may create temporary disruptions for road users. In the public announcement, the force issued an apology for any inconvenience the traffic adjustments may cause, and urged all commuters, delivery services, and local residents to plan alternate routes in advance and comply with the new rules during the construction period.
This infrastructure work aims to upgrade Grenada’s aging public sewer network, supporting long-term public health and urban development in the Carenage area. The traffic restrictions will remain in place until project officials complete the installation work and issue a formal notice lifting the route adjustments. Local road users are encouraged to check official RGPF and NAWASA updates for any changes to the timeline or traffic arrangements.
