Public Advised to Use Bypass Road During 4th Small Island Developing States (SIDS) Conference”

Published

The 4th Small Island Developing States (SIDS) Conference will be held from May 27th to May 31st, 2024.

This significant event will gather representatives and delegates from various nations to discuss critical issues affecting small islands globally.

To ensure the smooth flow of traffic and minimize inconvenience to the general public, the Ministry of Works in conjunction with the Royal Police Force of Antigua and Barbuda advises all residents and visitors to use the designated bypass road during the conference period.

The primary conference venue and surrounding areas are expected to experience increased traffic congestion due to the high number of attendees and security measures in place.
