The southbound lane of the Uriah Butler Highway remains under heavy water and impassable to vehicles due to flooding.
As such, police at the scene have kept the northbound lane as a dual carriageway and is allowing only trucks and SUVs through. It still, however, is a very volatile situation so the Commissioner of Police and the Ministry of Works are asking the public to stay at home unless you have urgent business to attend to.
Many motorists who are on the roads remain unsure of the routes available to get to their destination points. Below is a list of areas which are either opened or remain blocked. This story will be updated as new information becomes available.
