TRAFFIC signs between Fourth and Sixth Avenues in the Mongrippa Hill community of Bartica, Region 7, were painted by members of the F Division Community Policing Group last Sunday to guide oncoming northern-bound traffic on Fourth Avenue to stop before approaching the Sixth Avenue junction, and western-bound traffic on Sixth Avenue to stop at the Fourth Avenue junction.

This particular area is located on a hill, making it a necessity to have these signs there to aid traffic guidance.

The stop signs guiding northern- and southern-bound traffic between Fourth and Fifth avenues were also repainted.

The ‘F’ One Division Community Policing Chairman, Mr. Edward Persaud, and CPG member, Mr. Darren Husbands, together with Corporal Forde and two others of the Bartica Police Station Traffic Department undertook the task of painting the traffic signs.

The prevailing rainy conditions limited the accomplishment of this project, but a decision has been taken to continue painting other areas identified around Bartica until the desired result is achieved.
