CDB to Spotlight Data to Solving the Caribbean’s Traffic Challenge

NASSAU, BAHAMAS – Traffic congestion and its growing economic impact across the Caribbean will take center stage at the Caribbean Development Bank’s 56th annual meeting, set for June 1st to 5th in Nassau.

A key highlight will be the launch of a new data platform, designed to help governments turn research into practical solutions.

During a featured session titled “Stuck in Traffic,” experts will examine how congestion is affecting daily life, economic growth, and sustainable development across the region.

Specialists say better access to real-time data, including travel times and commuter behavior, could help countries move beyond short-term fixes toward smarter transport planning.

The meeting will also focus on building resilience and driving sustainable growth across Caribbean nations.
