Tree falls on Main St

By Staff Editor Wed, July 8 2026, 2:04 AM GMT-4

A tree fell across the western carriageway of Main Street yesterday in the vicinity of the Guyana Power and Light (GPL) building, blocking traffic, the Guyana Police Force (GPF) said.

In an advisory, the police urged motorists to exercise caution, reduce their speed and comply with directions being given by ranks at the scene.

The GPF also encouraged commuters to use alternative routes where possible to avoid delays while efforts were made to remove the obstruction and restore the free flow of traffic.
