George Town, Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands — 2 February 2026
The Ministry of Planning, Lands, Agriculture, Housing & Infrastructure (MPLAHI), on behalf of the National Road Safety Committee (NRSC), has issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for specialist consultancy support to design and help implement a new Integrated Traffic Management and Enforcement System (ITMES) for the Cayman Islands.
The RFP, now live on the Government’s Bonfire procurement portal, seeks a Consultancy Support Team to develop the technical, legal and operational framework for a modern, technology-enabled enforcement and traffic management system. This includes automated enforcement for speeding and other traffic violations, as well as wider traffic management functions, delivered in phases.
This work forms part of the Government’s long-term National Road Safety Strategy (NRSS) 2023–2038, which aims to reduce deaths and serious injuries on Cayman’s roads and support the broader “Road to Zero” vision.
Eric Bush, Chief Officer for MPLAHI and Chair of the National Road Safety Committee, said the RFP marks an important step in modernising how Cayman manages road safety and compliance.
“This is about building a safer, more modern and more accountable road network,” said Mr Bush. “The RFP is not about switching on cameras overnight. It is about bringing in specialist expertise to help us design the right system for Cayman – with clear legal frameworks, strong governance and a focus on reducing serious collisions, not generating revenue.”
The Consultancy Support Team will be asked to work with multiple agencies, including MPLAHI, the National Roads Authority, the Royal Cayman Islands Police Service, the Department of Vehicle and Drivers’ Licensing, the courts and the national CCTV programme. The work will include developing the overall system design and standards, supporting the business case and procurement approach, and preparing tender-ready materials for future implementation phases.
“We want to ensure that any automated enforcement and traffic management system introduced in the Cayman Islands is fair, transparent and data-driven,” Mr. Bush added. “This RFP is the first step in that process, and it will help us make informed decisions about where, when and how technology is deployed to improve safety and compliance on our roads.”
Full details of the RFP, including scope, requirements and submission timelines, are available on the Government’s Bonfire procurement portal: Integrated Traffic Management and Enforcement System (ITMES).
This initiative is one of the key programmes under the National Road Safety Strategy, supporting the “Four Es” of road safety – Engineering, Education, Emergency Services and Enforcement.
