Thousands of men, women and children took part in the walk, which started St Charles Lwanga Parish in Gerehu and will end at the St Joseph Parish in East Boroko.

The 14 stations are located at different parts of the scheduled route. The first station was Charles Lawanga, the next at Rainbow, NRI,  Adcol, Boulevard, VC, Highlander, Hohola bus stop, PNG Power, Foodland Bus stop, Port Moresby General Hospital bus stop, Vadavada Roundabout, China Town and the final station is the St Joseph Parish, East Boroko where it ends with the Veneration of the Cross.

Loop PNG spoke to an officer of traffics who urged those walking and who will be walking to take precautions when walking.

He said the risk of opportunisst taking advantage of this Good Friday walk is high.

Those walking are encouraged to leave their important personal belongings at home to avoid being nabbed during the walk.

"We will try to do what we can around here but we will need the general public to work together with us."

Police will be escorting the crowd while the Cross is being moved from one station to the next.

The Good Friday walk for the Station of the Cross began early this morning leaving the Don Bosco Technological Institute campus to take the long route to the Waigani parish.
