General Manager of the Demerara Harbour Bridge, Rawlston Adams reported yesterday that there was a drop of about 6% in traffic on the bridge during the period parking meters were implemented, compared to similar periods in years past.
Adams related this information yesterday during a consultation held at the Pegasus Hotel where presentations were done on the feasibility study and design for the New Demerara River Bridge.
“When the parking meters were introduced there were people protesting, there were no people parking in Georgetown so everybody wants to know where those people went, where they’ve gone, and we are saying we saw a drop in our traffic by as much as 6%,” Adams said in a comment after the session.
