Traffic delay: The Carenage, St George’s

Motorists and local residents in St George’s, Grenada, are being warned to prepare for ongoing overnight traffic disruptions along one of the capital’s busy thoroughfares, the Royal Grenada Police Force (RGPF) Traffic Department has confirmed. Starting Tuesday, August 25, 2026, traffic flow along The Carenage, stretching from its intersections with both Hughes Street and Young Street, will be subject to significant nightly delays. The restrictions will be in effect from 7:00 p.m. through 3:00 a.m. each night, and will remain in place until the RGPF issues an update concluding the work. The temporary hold-up in regular vehicle movement is required to accommodate critical infrastructure work being carried out by the National Water and Sewerage Authority (NAWASA), specifically a large-scale pipe-laying project aimed at upgrading Grenada’s water and sewerage network. In an official statement released by the Office of the Commissioner of Police, the RGPF extended a sincere apology to the public for any inconvenience the scheduled construction and traffic changes may cause to daily commutes, business operations, and leisure travel. The department also urged road users to plan alternate routes in advance and expressed gratitude for the public’s expected patience and cooperation as the essential infrastructure upgrade moves forward. This announcement comes as part of the government’s ongoing efforts to modernize Grenada’s public utilities, with long-term benefits expected for residents and visitors alike once the project is completed.
