Phased Reopening of Edward and Main Streets as George Town Revitalisation Nears Completion
George Town, Grand Cayman – 7 February 2025 – The Ministry of Planning, Agriculture, Housing, Infrastructure, Transport & Development (PAHITD), in collaboration with the George Town Revitalisation Initiative (GTRI), is pleased to announce the phased reopening of Edward and Main Streets on Monday, 10 February 2025, as above-ground works conclude.

Traffic Adjustments and Infrastructure Enhancements
As part of the final stages of the George Town Revitalisation Initiative, several key roadworks and traffic adjustments will be implemented to enhance accessibility and mobility within the area:

  *   Phased Reopening of Edward and Main Streets – Traffic will resume in phases to ensure a smooth transition to the new layout.
  *   Edward Street Re-pavement & Re-striping – As traffic flow is partially reverted to its original configuration, Edward Street will undergo full re-pavement and re-striping to enhance road conditions and safety.
  *   Main Street Traffic Flow Retained as One-Way – To maintain the pedestrian-friendly enhancements and ensure efficient vehicular movement, Main Street will revert to one-way.
  *   Further Traffic Enhancements Following Utility Pole Removal – Once utility poles are removed from the Shedden Road/Main Street and Edward Street/Shedden Road intersections, additional works will be carried out to improve traffic circulation in these areas.

Commitment to a Revitalised George Town
The Ministry of PAHITD and the GTRI appreciate the public’s patience and cooperation throughout this transformative initiative. These final adjustments mark a significant milestone in the creation of a dynamic, accessible, and modernised town centre, enhancing both the pedestrian and vehicular experience.

We encourage residents and visitors to follow the George Town Revitalisation Initiative and the Ministry of PAHITD on Facebook and Instagram for continued updates and traffic advisories.
