Traffic in the center of town, though less of a problem than on several other Caribbean islands, is a growing issue for island commuters. The government is under pressure to make improvements to the periphery, which runs around the city. As of late 2006 the planning stages have begun for the installment of a roundabout, along the main boulevard and next to the Free Zone, at one of the island's most troublesome intersections. In the meantime, several businesses and government departments have relocated their offices outside of the city center, spurring a boom in construction and modernisation.
