Motorists and commuters using the Ofankor-Nsawam road are at their wit\u2019s end due to daily traffic jams caused by ongoing construction works and the deplorable state of the road.<\/p>\n
The gridlock has resulted in extended travel times, disrupting daily routines and livelihoods.<\/p>\n
In an interview with Citi News, drivers lamented the challenges of the road, emphasising the health implications due to the dust and traffic congestion.<\/p>\n
One driver expressed his frustration, saying, \u201cWe have a big problem here. Although the road is under construction, it\u2019s taking too long to complete. The government and engineers have not helped the residents.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe frequently visit the hospital due to the dust on the road. The traffic is also terrible because the road under construction is too small, affecting vehicles.\u201d<\/p>\n
The drivers also urged the government to monitor the project\u2019s progress after awarded to contractors.<\/p>\n
Commuters are calling on authorities to expedite the completion of the construction and improve the road\u2019s condition.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
