Outcome 1
Easier, more reliable everyday journeys
Make journeys more predictable by actively managing congestion, tackling recurring bottlenecks and getting more performance from the existing network.
Why this is an outcome
Congestion, school peaks, corridor pressure, junction and access conflicts, and unreliable everyday journeys.
Physical Development Plan alignment
Mobility and accessibility; land-use integration; place-based planning.
National commitments
Commitment 1
Tackle Barbados' most persistent congestion hotspots
Identify, prioritise and treat the locations where delay is most concentrated and most repeated.
Commitment 2
Get more from the road network we already have
Improve operation, signals, junction layout, access management and maintenance before adding capacity.
Commitment 3
Establish a national corridor improvement programme
Plan improvements corridor by corridor rather than as isolated schemes.
