Drivers using the busy Madina-Accra road will face slower traffic starting this Sunday. The Ghana Highway Authority plans to reduce lanes at Tetteh Quarshie Interchange for four months. Workers need space to build a central support pillar under the bridge as part of expanding the interchange.
The road normally has four lanes going each direction between Madina and Accra. Construction crews will temporarily cut this down to three lanes on both sides of the highway. The lane reduction affects traffic moving north toward Madina and south toward Accra.
Officials say the work connects to a larger project improving the Accra-Tema Motorway. The 19.5-kilometer extension project aims to make traffic flow better through one of the capital's busiest areas. Construction teams must expand the Tetteh Quarshie bridge to handle more lanes.
The Highway Authority wants drivers to watch for signs and follow traffic officer directions during the disruption. Motorists should expect delays and plan extra travel time when using this route. The temporary changes help workers stay safe during the dangerous bridge construction process.
