Commuters on the Tema Motorway are facing increased challenges as ongoing reconstruction works continue along the busy highway. Reports indicate that dust from construction sites and improperly parked vehicles are creating hazardous conditions for motorists and pedestrians alike.
Road users have expressed frustration over limited visibility due to persistent dust clouds, which not only affect driving conditions but also raise health concerns for nearby residents. In addition, many drivers are struggling with illegal parking along the motorway shoulders, which further narrows already congested lanes and increases the risk of accidents.
