Motorists and local residents in Grenada are being alerted to upcoming temporary traffic adjustments that will reshape travel patterns across several public roads for three weeks starting May 14, 2026. The new rules, issued by the Traffic Department of the Royal Grenada Police Force (RGPF), are being implemented to accommodate the Mt Kumar to Chantilly G-Crews Pipe Laying Project, an infrastructure upgrade that will improve local utility services once completed.
Under the approved traffic plan, two major local roads will convert to one-way operation for the duration of the construction work. La Mode Public Road will only allow vehicles traveling in the direction of Mt Gay, while Beaulieu Public Road will be restricted to one-way traffic heading toward Snug Corner.
Additional routing adjustments have been mapped out to redirect through traffic around the construction zone. All vehicles traveling from Grand Etang toward St George’s will be required to turn left onto Boca Public Road, followed by another left turn onto Melrose Public Road, before exiting onto La Mode Public Road to continue their journey. For drivers departing from New Hampshire and nearby surrounding communities, the revised route calls for a left turn at the Beaulieu/Boca junction, a right turn onto Melrose Public Road, and exit onto La Mode Public Road.
Notably, the new traffic restrictions do not apply to all vehicle classes. Heavy trucks and public buses will be exempt from the altered routing rules, and will retain access to their standard, pre-construction routes throughout the three-week work period.
The RGPF has issued a public call for cooperation from all road users, emphasizing that the temporary adjustments are necessary to keep construction crews safe and allow the infrastructure project to progress on schedule. The official notice was released through the Office of the Commissioner of Police, with local outlet NOW Grenada noting it does not take responsibility for contributor content and provides a channel for reporting alleged abuse of its platform.
