The Ministry of Works and Transport extends sincere condolences to the family and friends of the passengers who were involved in the fatal road traffic accident on the Uriah Butler Highway near Charlieville, on February 5, 2019.
The Ministry is also greatly concerned for the many passengers that have been seriously injured in this incident. It is very unfortunate that once again, Trinidad and Tobago has lost precious lives on our roadways. The responsibility of safe driving is a serious issue that cannot be ignored. As a result, we continue to urge the general public to be vigilant, responsible and law abiding when using the nation’s roadways.
At this time, we thank all road users for partnering with us as we seek to change our road culture towards the reduction in road fatalities to zero.
