Gates being installed in Pt. Lisas

Postby **pete** » January 28th, 2009, 12:33 pm

This morning I saw a gate being installed to the north of the estate, past Powergen heading north, and just now saw another one being installed on one of the roads from Pacific avenue to the SMR.

Anyone know what this is being done for and what the traffic arrangements of the future will be?

^^ If that is so, you would have to show your "Passport" to enter there

^ im talkin about the dotish orange thing with ure picture on it etc..mostly contractors had to sit in the safety course for it...

when i was with IPSL i was asked my plant manager about it..and he said that there was a plan to lock off the estate from the public so contractors had to acquire the passport for entry into the estate...most company men would use their company id when it is implemented...

IPSL....PCS and one or two other companies already started the use of this system before visitors can enter their compound

This would be keeping with the ISPS (International Ship and Port Security) code...

I guess all these "systematic" developments as well as others "in the pipeline" would be introduced before the Summits.

Kudos to Patos for showcasing Trinidad to the world as a systematic and deleloping country

^^ it would be the same as it is now....

bottle necking.....a couple months when point lisas flooded out...i took more than 3 hrs to exit the estate...there was stand still traffic in flood....

im sure the public isnt even aware of the Ammonium nitrate plant that is being constructed in the estate and the devastation that it can do....i sat in a conference with the vendors and just thought WTF!!!

take a look at this

The gates look like they'll only restrict vehicular traffic. Unwanted persons would still be able to get in and out.

IMHO it'll just be to give an appearance of security while being a major PITA.

This could probably be a good initiative by Plipdeco but when they decide to have a Security Check and a line of Paramount Trucks coming down .. I could very well see some Traffic piling up ... well I guess it all depends on where the gates will be situated !

will access to say FCB for example be affected?
not all A/C holders, etc, would have one of these passports.

^ the only way i can see there being gated is on the junction infront of M5...

Petrofac Training at Atlantic Plaza sees about the Passports on behalf of Plipdeco...
Not sure if they still have the contract...

de traffic is already bad....how they plan to do this? my god.....it will really be a nightmare....

fafrumlosin · Postby **fafrumlosin** » January 29th, 2009, 10:49 am

the traffic already bad as it is and personally anything that plipdeco does to facilitate security just ends up causing more traffic or problems...when my pass for my van expired it took me nearly a hour to get another...

Deviboy · Postby **Deviboy** » January 29th, 2009, 10:25 pm

i work in Pt Lisas, i see that gate is gonna cause TRAFFIC.

The passport they are talking about is the Plea Passport, but that is only for workers that are working in plants.....

If you notice there are no guard booths being erected at either gates, so i want to know what really going on !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
