SRK Consulting: Project No: 439414 Staatsolie Pipeline EIA – Draft EIA Report Page 44 4.2.3 Transport infrastructure 4.2.3.1 Roads Thousands of commuters travel from Wanica to Paramaribo every day, in buses or private cars. Heavy traffic between these two districts concentrates on three main roads that run in a south – north direction. Two of these are located within the study area: Martin Luther King Road and Sir Winston Churchill Road both run through Houttuin and Livorno, where they converge and cross the Saramacca Canal to Beekhuizen at the bridge to the Van ‘t Hogerhuys Road. Both roads are surfaced and have one lane in each direction. The bridge over the Saramacca Canal at the Van ‘t Hogerhuys Road experiences daily traffic jams at peak hours. Traffic intensity is high on Martin Luther King Road and moderate on Sir Winston Churchill Road. Most vehicles are passenger vehicles, but Martin Luther King Road in particular also carries significant numbers of heavy vehicles, transporting materials such as sand, gravel and timberto Paramaribo. According to a 2007 traffic count of the Road Authority, approximately 40 000 vehicles crossed the bridge over the Saramacca Canal every day (see traffic count at the bridge in Figure 4-12). As the number of vehicles on the road and traffic intensity has increased further over the last years, this number is now likely to be higher. Figure 4-12: Traffic count at the bridge over the Saramacca Canal in 2007 All primary roads in the study area are sealed and include: • In Ressort Beekhuizen: o Van ‘t Hogerhuys Road from the bridge at the Saramacca Canal to the Zwartenhovenbrug Road in the centre of Paramaribo; • In Ressort Livorno: o Sir Winston Churchill Road; and o Martin Luther King Road; • In Ressort Houttuin: o Sir Winston Churchill Road; o Martin Luther King Road; and o Wilhelmina Road and Cassia Lane.
