Recent road reconstruction on target sections of the Queens Road has seen the continuation of the Fiji Road Authority’s (FRA) commitment to improved driving conditions for motorists.

FRA General Manager Delivery – Central Division Aram Goes says the journey from Nadi to Suva is improving with the completion of the Queens Road, Talenaua Village reconstruction improving economic productivity and promoting more reliable journey times for the traveling public and businesses alike.

He says these improvement works have resulted in increased travel speeds necessitating the need for new road humps, along with a 60km/h speed limit through the Village, for community safety.

The installation of additional road Humps he adds on the Nadi-Suva highway is not the FRA’s preferred treatment for speed management, however public safety continues to the Authority’s paramount consideration.

FRA continues to focus on critical sections of the Queens Road highway with upcoming projects planned for completion, including Matanivusi Hill, the Navua Hospital area and Nabukavusi along with remedial works through Wainadoi.
