The Traffic Department of the Royal Grenada Police Force (RGPF) notifies the general public that effective Monday, 27 May 2024, bus operators will no longer be permitted to take on or set down passengers at Lucas Street with its intersection with Church Street and Market Hill (commonly known as Top Market Hill).
This practice has been observed in the past, particularly involving school children, however, it is important to note that such action is not in accordance with established Traffic Regulations. Designated bus stops are marked and provide a safer environment for passengers to board and exit buses. These areas have been carefully chosen to minimise disruptions to traffic flow and ensure the smooth movement of vehicles on our roads.
We understand that this change may cause some inconvenience to persons who board and exit buses at this location. However, we appeal for understanding and compliance from commuters and drivers and encourage the use of designated bus stops and or bus terminal, and to plan their travel accordingly.
Drivers are also reminded that it is their responsibility to adhere to Traffic Regulations at all times. Bus drivers who continue to pick up or drop off passengers at unauthorised locations will be subject to fines or other penalties under the Road Traffic Act.
We appreciate your attention to this matter and thank you for your continued support.
