Drivers and commuters, especially early users of the Demerara Harbour Bridge are being urged to follow the early morning double-lane schedule (eastbound) from 05:55 hrs to 07:00 hrs and 07:35 hrs to 08:00 hrs.
A statement yesterday from the Demerara Harbour Bridge Corporation (DHBC) said that the double-lane measure was instituted to accommodate the total volume of traffic heading into Georgetown/Demerara on or before 08:30 hrs, however, it said that this can only work if there is promptness and cooperation on both sides.
The DHBC said that it is working to ensure systems are in place to facilitate this process, as well as to be on standby in the event of any untoward incident.
