The National Roads Authority (NRA) along with fellow members of the Traffic Management Panel (TMP) happily announce that the proposed speed limit changes will take effect on 7th March 2016.

Members of the TMP include the Ministry of Planning, Agriculture, Housing and Infrastructure, National Roads Authority (NRA), Department of Vehicle and Drivers’ Licensing (DVDL) and the Royal Cayman Islands Police Service (RCIPS). Public engagement for input to the proposed changes took place in 2013, and the TMP has strongly considered all comments and concerns.
