WILLEMSTAD - The police are urging drivers to drive more slowly in the coming days leading up to Carnival due to construction work on scaffolding along the carnival route.
The route runs along main roads where drivers usually travel at a slightly higher speed. Adjusting the speed is desirable due to the construction of scaffolding and people on the street: according to the police, there is a lot of pedestrian movement on these roads. Specifically, this concerns Rooseveltweg, Schottegatweg-West, Weg naar Welgelegen, and Roodeweg.
The police also request the attention of those working on the scaffolding to consider the traffic by not blocking the road.
