Broken-down trailer slows traffic on Winston Jones Highway

MANCHESTER, Jamaica — Motorists travelling along the Winston Jones Highway in the vicinity of Russell Place district are being advised to expect minor delays as a broken down trailer is currently blocking one side of the roadway.

As a result, traffic has been reduced to a single lane. Drivers are urged to proceed with caution and obey the instructions of traffic personnel in the area.

It is understood that the same parked trailer was involved in a three vehicle collision this morning which resulted in two fatalities.

Authorities say efforts are underway to have the trailer removed and the roadway fully reopened as soon as possible.
