An expert in urban planning, Dr. Bernard Abeiku Arthur, emphasized the importance of ensuring the proper implementation of plans related to Accra's transportation and road infrastructure. He noted that this sector has often been neglected due to a lack of allocated funds for critical projects.

Dr. Arthur expressed that addressing transportation and traffic challenges in Accra is not an insurmountable challenge, highlighting the need for proactive action by stakeholders.

“Accra is not that difficult to manage in terms of urban transport. It is three things that have been worrying us. We have been planning and planning and planning, we have not been implementing. We have been putting measures in place but we are not enforcing and ensuring that the right things are followed. We have been planning and not adding money where we are supposed to put money to ensure that the systems are running.

“Transport is like the heart of every city or every town. If you shut transport or shut energy you grind an economy completely. And we’ve been planning, we’ve been talking about rails, we’ve been talking about non-motorized transport but we are not putting money and efforts and enforcement where we are supposed. That is what is worrying us,” he was quoted by citinewsroom.com.
