Heavy rains have disrupted movement on the Accra–Kumasi Highway, with sections of the major road submerged by floodwaters, bringing traffic to a complete standstill.
The floodwaters have reportedly crossed the stretch of the highway, effectively dividing the carriageway and leaving motorists stranded in long queues in both directions.
Commuters have been caught in severe delays as vehicles remain stuck, unable to proceed due to rising water levels on the busy intercity route, JoyNews’ Naa Morkor reported.
The Interior Minister, Muntaka Mubarak, in an interview on Joy FM’s Super Morning Show on Monday, said the rains were expected to continue until midday as forecast by weather experts, and urged the public to prioritise personal safety.
He further called on all emergency and security services to collaborate to ensure the protection of lives and property.
