KINGSTON, Jamaica — The police are reminding members of the public that in order to facilitate three carnival road marches tomorrow Sunday, April 28, several road closures will take effect across the Corporate Area beginning at 8:00 am.
The motoring public should expect delays or detours along roadways in and around New Kingston, Half Way Tree and Liguanea in St Andrew, including Hope Road, Knutsford Boulevard, Trafalgar Road, Waterloo Road, Eastwood Park Road and East Kings House Road, the police said.
Interested individuals may visit the Jamaica Constabulary Force website or social media pages (Facebook and Twitter) to view a map of the intended routes for the road marches, the police’s Corporate Communications Unit (CCU) advised.
The CCU cautioned that during the parade the police will be enforcing no-parking zones and motorists are being warned that illegally parked motor vehicles could be impounded at the owner’s expense.
In addition, no vending stalls or handcart vendors will be allowed along the parade routes.
No music systems will be allowed along the parade routes. No motor or pedal cyclists, to include quad bikes, are allowed to participate in the parades; and no distribution of souvenirs and other gratis items will be allowed to be issued from the trucks.
