Traffic lights at Achimota Police Station has gone off for a while now
All the traffic lights located right in front of the Achimota Police Station Intercession road are not functioning.
For more than three days, drivers and road users have had to manoeuvre their way through that portion of road due to the appalling situation.
As of the morning of Wednesday, July 14, 2021, the traffic lights were still not functional. The situation has become worrying especially for school children who ply that route.
The road which connects commuters from Pillar 2, Abofu through to Dzorwulu, Abelemkpe, and the N1 stretch is known to be one of the most dangerous routes which have been a target for criminals who take advantage of the lack of street lights.
