Over 120 advertising boards pulled down in NRSA operation across Accra

The National Road Safety Authority (NRSA) has removed over 120 unauthorized advertising boards from road medians in parts of Greater Accra, according to a recent operation. The dismantling, headed by NRSA's Director-General Abraham Amaliba, included the Authority's Technical Advisor and officials from the Greater Accra Regional Team.

Their route stretched from the Supreme Court, through the Ridge Roundabout and the Trades Union Congress (TUC), concluding at the Mövenpick Ambassador Hotel. The NRSA emphasized that the removal aimed to clear visual obstructions, enhance motorists' visibility, and ensure pedestrian safety on the affected roads. In a Facebook post on November 8, the Authority stated that the exercise was part of their broader initiatives to enhance road safety and urban order.

They added that the operation was intended to safeguard pedestrians and other road users by preventing structures from obstructing road medians and adjacent areas, which could potentially endanger safety.
