Traffictech system will only operate on roads with speed limit notifications – NRSA

The National Road Safety Authority (NRSA) in Ghana has announced that the Traffictech system will initially only be deployed on roads with clearly displayed speed limit notifications. This decision aims to ensure fairness in the implementation of the digital traffic enforcement system, particularly in areas where road signs and other safety infrastructure are inadequate.

NRSA Director-General Abraham Amaliba stated that it would be unfair to use modern technology to enforce traffic regulations on roads with broken-down infrastructure, such as lacking road signs and speed limits. The system will be activated only in areas where motorists have been properly informed of the applicable speed limits through road signs, such as Boundary Road towards Mahama Road in Accra.

The decision was discussed in a meeting involving key government officials, the police, and transport sector operators to ensure a common understanding of the deployment of the Traffictech system.
