Port-of-Spain May­or Chin­ua Al­leyne an­nounced that a re­newed traf­fic-man­age­ment and wreck­ing ini­tia­tive will com­mence to­mor­row, aimed at ad­dress­ing long-stand­ing is­sues of con­ges­tion and un­safe park­ing across the cap­i­tal.

Re­spond­ing to calls for a struc­tured park­ing sys­tem in­stead of en­force­ment, DO­MA Chair­man Gre­go­ry Aboud said the city must fo­cus on a com­pre­hen­sive ap­proach to traf­fic and park­ing man­age­ment rather than re­ly­ing sole­ly on wreck­ing op­er­a­tions.

May­or Al­leyne, who was in Sealots at the time, stressed that im­me­di­ate ac­tion is re­quired to re­store or­der while longer-term so­lu­tions are de­vel­oped.
