In a collaborative effort between The Gambia Police Force and various stakeholders, including line ministries and agencies, a nationwide road clearing operation is set to commence, beginning in the Greater Banjul Area. <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

This initiative, effective from Thursday October 19, 2023, aims to address issues related to road safety and public order by demolishing both permanent and temporary structures found to be in violation of existing laws.<\/p>\n

This significant development follows the issuance of a government press release titled ‘Special Security Operation on Illegal Encroachments,’ in which the public is urged to cooperate by removing any structures that have been illegally erected along the nation’s roads. <\/p>\n

According to the statement issued by the police force, failure to comply with this directive will result in the strict enforcement of relevant laws<\/p>\n

The operation, which is anticipated to be carried out in a systematic and thorough manner, will target structures that encroach upon roadways, posing threats to both public safety and the flow of traffic. <\/p>\n

“The Greater Banjul Area will be the first region to witness the enforcement of these measures, with subsequent actions scheduled to take place across the entire nation,” the statement says. <\/p>\n

This collaborative endeavour signifies the government’s commitment to improving road safety and ensuring public order in The Gambia. Authorities are resolute in their dedication to upholding the rule of law and creating an environment that prioritises the welfare and safety of the general public.<\/p>\n

Residents and stakeholders are encouraged to remain vigilant and participate in this operation to help create safer and more efficient roadways. The authorities also emphasize that strict compliance with the instructions provided in the government’s press release is of utmost importance to prevent any legal consequences.<\/p>\n

As The Gambia embarks on this ambitious road clearing operation, the nation anticipates a significant improvement in road safety and the restoration of public order. <\/p>\n

This initiative underscores the government’s commitment to addressing the vital issue of illegal encroachments on roadways, ultimately making the nation’s streets safer for all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
