New road opens in congested GT area
(CNS): The National Roads Authority (NRA) has partially opened a new road connecting Outpost Street to the Bobby Thompson Way Roundabout in one of the capital’s main areas of congestion. The new road is designed to enhance traffic flow and alleviate the jams in the area by providing a more efficient route for drivers, especially those heading to the Fairbanks area.
Officials said that while the road is now accessible to the public, the project remains incomplete, with ongoing roadworks scheduled to continue.
“Drivers are strongly encouraged to exercise caution while travelling through the area. It is essential to adhere to the posted speed limits, pay close attention to traffic signage and remain vigilant for workers who may be present on or near the road,” the NRA said, as it thanked drivers for their cooperation and patience as this project continues.

Diverting the traffic through a residential street where people already cut through Outpost Street to Anthony Drive, then to Walkers/Smith sounds like a recipe for disaster.
Roads to nowhere. Fast.
đź’ˇthe question of transport is a question of mathematics and geometry. these sciences do not care what your culture or climate is because these are objective indicators.
đź’ˇBraess’s paradox is the observation that adding one or more roads to a road network can slow down overall traffic flow through it. The paradox was first discovered by Arthur Pigou in 1920,and later named after the German mathematician Dietrich Braess in 1968.
👉🏻 the worse you create conditions for pedestrians and cyclists, the more you force people to get behind the wheel of a car and thereby provoke traffic jams
nra…..inventing road projects to keep their workforce busy and to use up their yearly budget…
from the people who said more roads are not the answer….yep, you get more roads.
just another day in wonderland…..
The should continue to Walkers Road to have full impact. That fast the CIG didnt budget for continuing is absurd.
Can ya’ll not put a map on the article, most people know the roads by driving them not by name. Just a thought.
It’s the one by the bush church with the big tree.
