Police Traffic Department to have increased presence in Bequia

Motorists on Bequia are being encouraged to obey road markings and signs, as the Traffic Department of the Royal St Vincent and the Grenadines Police Force (RSVGPF) will be upping their presence on the Grenadine isle.

On Tuesday, Superintendent and Head of the Traffic Department Kenneth John said that at present, the Traffic Depar-tment is refreshing the roads markings on Bequia.{{more}}

He said that they noticed that one of the major bus terminals in Bequia was being occupied by private vehicles, “and last week we put in road markings and… road signs, police notice parking for omnibuses and we are calling on drivers in Bequia to comply with road signs.”

The traffic boss noted also that they have painted in a number of pedestrian crossings and road signs, as traffic is increasing and the island is becoming congested.

“We have to ensure proper road markings are there and safety for all. We are calling on drivers in Bequia to comply, as the clamp team will be going to Bequia,” stressed John.

He also revealed that a number of road markings on the mainland will soon be redone. (LC)
