## Resource

With the new school year in full swing, Montego Bay is facing major traffic chaos thanks to the Western Water Resilience Project. Superintendent Samuels urges drivers to leave earlier and consider carpooling or public transit to dodge gridlock, as construction work is expected to worsen congestion. Police are on high alert with extra officers, body cameras, and traffic light monitoring to keep things moving — though potholes remain a big headache. A new bypass hopes to ease pressure later this term, but for now, patience and planning are key as schools ramp up and traffic volumes soar.
