Structures are springing up along the N1 in Accra, worsening the existing precarious situation on the highway due to obstructions to motorists’ view.
Some residents along the N1 at Awoshie Water Works in Accra have thus petitioned the Ablekuma North Municipal Assembly over a structure being constructed along the highway.
The petition was copied to the Ghana Highway Authority, which has since asked the developer to move three metres away from the highway.
Residents, however, have claimed that work is still being carried out by the developer to complete the project.
With all kinds of structures being put up along the highway, the apparent nuisance is said to be endangering the lives of road users, pedestrians and even residents in the neighbourhood.
