A severe traffic congestion has been reported on the Accra-Tema motorway, specifically on the Tema-bound side, due to a multi-vehicle collision. The incident involved three vehicles: an SUV, a saloon car, and a Toyota bus, which crashed into each other, causing a significant blockage on the road.
According to eyewitnesses, the collision occurred between Toyota Ghana and the Axle Weighing Station on Monday, July 29, during the morning rush hour. The exact cause of the accident is yet to be determined, but it is believed to have been caused by reckless driving or brake failure.
