The Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA) has ramped up efforts to remove traders who have returned to pavements and unauthorised locations within the Central Business District (CBD) in the capital city.
In collaboration with the Korle Klottey Municipal Assembly (KoKMA), the AMA launched a decongestion exercise on May 20, 2025, aimed at easing vehicular and pedestrian congestion.
Despite the initiative, media reports indicate that traders resumed business on the streets days after the decongestion exercise.
In response, the AMA, alongside National Security officials, has deployed a taskforce to enforce order, particularly at the Kwame Nkrumah Circle.
