The Traffic Department has so far been forced to remove speed limit signs on Sir George Walter Highway and Friars Hill Road because they contained the wrong information.
Head of the Traffic Department Superintendent Rodney Ellis told Observer yesterday that this was just one the major concerns that law enforcement officers have been encountering with the major roads that are currently being upgraded. The Road Rehabilitation programme is being undertaken by Bahamas Hot Mix Company.
“I utilise my guys to remove them because I do not want to mislead the public with the speed limit, which is 40 miles per hour and not 35 miles per hour. Some of the road markings and the placement of the pedestrian crossings are being placed in areas which are not suitable, so we have to make some adjustments,” Ellis said.

Though significant progress has been made with work on some of the island’s major roadways, there are fresh concerns from the police, specifically with the road markings now being done in some areas.
The government’s Road Infrastructure Rehabilitation project has not been without its fair share of criticism over the last few years, with delays and public disagreements between the government and the contractor – Bahamas Hot Mix (BHM) – tainting attitudes toward the widely heralded venture.
