Airport routes closed
...dry run for summit

MOTORISTS and passengers heading to and from the Piarco International Airport are advised to use alternative routes as several roads leading to the airport will be blocked off on Friday.

The exercise, according to Acting Commissioner of Police James Philbert, is to facilitate a dry run of operations related to the upcoming Fifth Summit of the Americas, scheduled for April 17-19.

The restrictions will be in place from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. and will affect traffic along the Golden Grove Road; between Caroni North Bank Road and Piarco roundabout, and the Churchill Roosevelt Highway; between Mausica Road and Orange Grove Road, Philbert stated in a media release yesterday.

Motorists were advised to use the Mausica Road and the Caroni North Bank Road as alternative access routes.

The full extent of the changes for the four-hour period are as follows:

The western carriageway of the BWIA Boulevard will be closed to vehicular traffic while the eastern carriageway will host two-way traffic for vehicles coming and going to the airport.

People driving along the Churchill Roosevelt Highway to St Helena will be re-routed south along the Mausica Road then west along the Caroni North Bank Road.

Vehicles coming into the Piarco International Airport from St Helena will be directed to proceed north along the Caroni North Bank Road, north along Mausica Road, west along the Churchill Roosevelt Highway and south along the BWIA Boulevard.

Vehicles heading to Port of Spain along the Churchill Roosevelt Highway shall proceed north along Golden Grove Road, west along the Eastern Main Road, south down Orange Grove Road, Tacarigua, and continue west along the highway.
