The Ghana Police Service has ordered concrete mixer truck operators in Accra and Tema to halt their activities on the roads from August 28 to August 30. This temporary restriction, announced following a meeting on August 27, aims to address issues related to road safety and compliance with traffic regulations. During the three-day suspension, the Police stated that concrete mixer trucks will be prohibited from operating on roads within the two cities.
The initiative was prompted by concerns raised about the spillage of concrete and other materials onto roads, which the Police said obstruct traffic, pose hazards to motorists and other road users, and contribute to damage to road surfaces. Operators have been advised to ensure that no concrete or other materials are discharged or left on roads during transportation and other operations.
The Police emphasized that any vehicle found operating in violation of the directive will face enforcement action in line with the law. The directive is part of the Police's broader efforts to enhance road safety and protect road infrastructure.
