During the Regatta period, KPSM will implement several road safety and traffic management measures to ensure the safety of all road users and to secure the free flow of traffic, particularly along Union Road, which is expected to experience increased traffic due to Regatta-related activities.
Traffic Diversion – Union Road (Weekend Measures)
During the Regatta weekend, the following temporary measure will be enforced:
- Motorists traveling on Union Road will NOT be permitted to make a left turn into the entrance of Port de Plaisance.
- Drivers wishing to access Port de Plaisance must proceed toward the roundabout in the Bellevue direction and then return toward the entrance of Port de Plaisance from that route.
Parking Advisory
KPSM reminds the public that there is sufficient parking available on the property of Port de Plaisance.
Drivers are strongly advised not to park alongside Union Road. Vehicles parked in a manner that obstructs or endangers the free flow of traffic may be towed at the owner’s expense.
