One of the many topics that discussed at a cabinet meeting today at the Department of Agriculture Conference Room, was the new traffic rules for the Laufou and CBT area.
Commissioner of Public Safety, Le’i Sonny Thompson, explained the new traffic rules in detail. He said that until a permanent solution to traffic congestion in this area is found, these will be the traffic rules for the time being from 7: 00 am-8:30 am and 3:00pm to 4:30 pm.

Governor Lolo Moliga said there’s been visible improvement in the flow of traffic since the new traffic rules went into effect.
He added that bus stops in Nu’uuli and Utulei have been removed as they were the cause of traffic bottleneck.
“Being stuck on the road for 1-1/2 hours, takes away valuable time from the lives of people,” he said.
The governor also informed directors that discussions are continuing with families for alternate roads.
