Drivers at the Madina Market taxi station under the Ghana Private Road Transport Union (GPRTU) have appealed to the La Nkwantanang-Madina Municipal Assembly to urgently expand and improve drainage systems around the area.
Speaking on Adom TV’s Badwam show, the drivers complained of persistent flooding at the car park whenever it rains, attributing the situation to overflowing gutters.
They said the recurring floods disrupt their operations and inconvenience passengers, calling for immediate intervention to address the problem.
The drivers also urged authorities to fast-track the ongoing Madina Market project, noting that delays are worsening congestion and putting pressure on the limited space at the station.
Responding to the concerns, a representative of the Assembly, Billy Blay, assured that steps are being taken to resolve the issue.
He indicated that the Assembly is implementing measures to ease congestion and improve conditions in the area, adding that it remains committed to completing the market project and upgrading infrastructure for traders and transport operators.
