Drivers appeal for street lights on Pokuase–Amasaman road to prevent accidents

Commercial vehicle drivers traveling along the Accra-Pokuase and Kumasi routes are urgently urging authorities to address the lack of street lights on the Pokuasi-Amasaman road. Speaking to Adom News, these drivers expressed growing concerns over the hazardous conditions experienced at night and early morning hours due to poor visibility.

They highlighted that inadequate lighting makes it difficult to see pedestrians, other vehicles, and obstacles, significantly increasing the risk of accidents. The drivers noted that multiple crashes have occurred on this stretch despite repeated calls for action, despite the repeated concerns. They are now demanding that the authorities responsible for road infrastructure and street lighting urgently repair or install the necessary lighting.

The drivers firmly believe that improved lighting will enhance visibility, bolster road safety, and prevent additional accidents, especially during the night.
