KINGSTON, Jamaica — The Judiciary of Jamaica says the next “Traffic Ticket Public Day” event for the parishes of Kingston and St Andrew will be held on Wednesday, July 8 and Thursday, July 9, 2026, at the National Arena.The initiative reflects a deliberate and strategic response by the judiciary to address the persistent backlog of traffic cases, while advancing access to justice, strengthening compliance with the law and promoting orderly administration across the courts.According to a press release on Tuesday, motorists with tickets between February 1, 2018, and the present year (2026) are eligible to participate.
They are strongly encouraged to register and utilise this opportunity to have their matters addressed in a timely and structured forum before the execution of warrants.“The volume of outstanding matters within Kingston and St Andrew has reached a level that necessitates decisive and coordinated intervention,” said Chief Justice Bryan Sykes.He continued, “This initiative represents a measured and pragmatic approach to restoring equilibrium within the system, while reinforcing the principle that adherence to the law is mandatory and that breaches must be addressed with due dispatch and procedural integrity.”Registration for “Traffic Ticket Public Day” opens on Tuesday, May 5, 2026, and closes on Sunday, May 31, 2026, at midnight.Motorists may register by submitting their name, tax registration number (TRN) and ticket details via traffictickets@jamaicajudiciary.gov.jm or WhatsApp: 876-453-5060 or 876-453-5242.Motorists are also encouraged to verify their outstanding ticket information in advance by utilising the online platform at trafficticketlookup.gov.jm.
