Portions of Kwame Nkrumah Interchange have developed deep and deadly potholes, five months after the 17 million dollar project was commissioned.
What started as a small pothole has become a pond in front of Ernest Chemist close to the Newtown overhead.
The situation worsens by the day delaying the flow of traffic and destroying vehicle parts.
Citi News’ Caleb Kudah reported that “a water pipe that burst under the road three months ago, keeps eroding the road.”
According to him, “several attempts to fix the pipe have yielded no results as technicians have failed to permanently rectify the anomaly.”
“The drivers are currently meandering their way through the potholes because of the deep holes.,” he added.
Some drivers who spoke to Citi News also expressed their frustrations about the problem.
“It is really affecting our work. The potholes delay the flow of traffic. Most of the drivers have to slow down and navigate their turns and this causes traffic,” one driver complained.
