Loaded transit truck left for weeks exposes safety, enforcement and National Security lapses, says CUTS
CUTS International Accra, a leading research and public policy think tank, has criticised the prolonged failure of state agencies to address a loaded transit truck parked along the Achimota stretch of the Accra–Nsawam road, just before ABC Junction.

A Nigerian-registered transit truck, registered under T-26001LA, has remained parked for over a month along the Achimota stretch of the Accra–Nsawam road, creating severe congestion and raising serious safety concerns. CUTS International, a leading think tank, has criticized the negligence of state agencies in addressing the obstruction.
The truck's presence near an active police traffic control point has highlighted lapses in enforcement and monitoring of cargo vehicles. The Road Traffic Regulations 2026, L.I. 2519, provide clear guidelines on prohibited parking practices, yet the truck has remained unremoved. CUTS urges authorities to inspect the truck, identify the cargo, and take necessary safety measures.
The organization draws parallels to the Appiaste explosion in January 2022 and the Beirut port explosion in August 2020, emphasizing the need for prompt action to prevent future disasters.
