The National Roads Authority (NRA) was created to administer, manage, control, develop and
maintain the Islands's public roads and related facilities, such as
signals, stormwater facilities, roadway lighting, roadway directional
signage, etc.
It performs the following: routine, periodic and
emergency public road maintenance; collects information on the performance of the existing
transportation system; forecasts future traffic demand; and identifies
possible solutions to anticipated issues in system performance and
deficiencies.
The NRA currently has various road projects underway including:
the Linford Pierson Highway expansion
East West arterial construction
the Airport Connector Road
the Crewe Road and Hurley Merren Boulevard widening
In 2020 the NRA painted 'sharrow's on the roads to help improve cyclist safety. See the info graphic below to find out more about the rights of cyclists on the roads.
