A study conducted by the National Safety Campaign (NASACA) has uncovered significant issues with traffic light functionality in Accra and surrounding cities.
The summary of their findings indicates that: • Only 13% of traffic lights in Accra are fully functional. • Around 41% are partially functional. • 45% are not working at all.
The research, conducted over 59 days from December 13, 2023, to February 9, 2024, covered approximately 200 traffic lights and assessed three key aspects: functionality, partial functionality, and complete malfunction.
Additionally, some traffic lights were found to be obstructed from view or invaded by hawkers, posing further risks.
