PNP Calls for Urgent Action on Thomas Vincent Highway Safety

The People’s National Party (PNP) is urging the Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of Infrastructure to take decisive action by allocating the necessary funds for the proper demarcation of lines on the Thomas Vincent Highway.

The plea comes after this weekend’s fatal traffic accident, which claimed three lives. The PNP says the heartbreaking incident has underscored an urgent need for immediate government intervention.

The PNP says attention is needed for the stretch near Elridgeville village where the recent accident occurred, described as dangerously dark and lacking essential traffic markings.

“The absence of lights and highway markings has tragically contributed to Friday night’s incident,” stated the PNP via a press release.

“It is unacceptable that the highway lines have not been repainted in over twenty years,” the PNP added.

The PNP is demanding that effective measures be implemented immediately to safeguard lives along this critical route.
