New train accident: We take full responsibility - Railway Development

The Ghana Railway Development Authority (GRDA) has taken responsibility for the recent train accident on the Tema-Mpakadan railway line.

He explained that, the Railway Authority builds bridges every 2km, but some were made for small trucks because they don’t have clearance for larger ones.

The big truck drivers don’t want to drive 5km for the other so they want to force and pass the bridge made for the normal passenger cars.”

But, the CEO said they will hold a meeting today and dully inform the government how long it will take them to repair the train.

After a full assessment, they will communicate whether they can make the commissioning date.

“The commissioning was planned for the end of June so today we will hold a meeting and dully inform the government how long it will take us to repair the train

After a full assessment, we will communicate if we can make the commissioning date,” he said.
