Africa-Press – Liberia. <\/strong><\/span>The Ministry of Public Works has announced the closure of ELWA and Duport Road Junction corridor for vehicular traffic beginning March 5.<\/p>\n

The ministry in a press release said, the closure of the road will accelerate ongoing construction works along the corridor<\/p>\n

The Road will be reopened to vehicular traffic on Wednesday, May 5, 2023.<\/p>\n

Full Statement Below:<\/p>\n

All vehicles heading towards ELWA Junction from Tubman Boulevard shall access the Road adjacent to the LRA Building which shall then be a one-lane access point temporarily by directive of the Liberia National Police Traffic Division<\/p>\n

Motorists shall then drive down at the end of the road and make a right turn to get controlled access to the AB Tolbert Road towards Duport Road Junction<\/p>\n

Vehicles using the route from AB Road towards the ELWA Junction shall make a right turn behind the LRA Building, as there will be a \u201cNo Go Zone\u201d Beyond the Junction towards Jahmale<\/p>\n

Motorists en route to the ELWA \u2013 SKD Stadium Road shall divert to SD Cooper Road as the road will be temporarily closed to the Public around the Fawaz Building Materials Store<\/p>\n

Vehicles plying from ELWA Junction \u2013 AB Tolbert Road to the main Duport Road Junction shall make a stop and bend to the left at the PYJ\/Watch Tower Junction where a concrete barrier will be placed as a sign of road closure<\/p>\n

All traffic from Duport Road towards the main junction shall make a right turn only at the Total Filling Station by directive of the Traffic Police. Meanwhile, all traffic from Benson Hospital Road towards the Duport Road T Junction shall make a left turn at the Total Filling Station. There will be no unauthorized access to vehicles, motorcycles, or kehkeh (Tricycles) beyond the Total Filling Station as there will be concrete barriers to restrict movements.<\/p>\n

Vehicles making access to the main Duport Road Junction towards AB Tolbert \u2013 ELWA Junction shall make a right turn by Total Filling Station towards Benson Hospital and make a left turn opposite the hospital towards the main carriageway, and then another left turn towards the Police Academy Junction towards SKD Boulevard Road beyond.<\/p>\n

Vehicles from Zayzay Community to Benson Hospital to Duport shall follow the same directive as mentioned earlier and\/or drive directly to the T Junction: Duport Road\/Total Filling Station and make a left turn to Duport Road, GSA Road, Rehab, and beyond<\/p>\n

The Ministry of Public Works, therefore, solicits the cooperation of all including Motorists, Business Owners, the Liberia National Police through its Traffic Division, and the General Public, as all is being done to restore normal traffic movement beyond the stipulated Closure of the Road which runs from Sunday, March 5 \u2013 Wednesday, May 5, 2023.<\/p>\n

Please note, however, that the closure of the two Junctions – ELWA and Duport Road – will not be simultaneous. Duport Road Junction will be closed first; Within three weeks of its closure, ELWA Junction will be closed. This is intended to mitigate whatever inconveniences the General Public would face as a consequence of these traffic restrictions.<\/p>\n
