General News of Sunday, 13 August 2023Source: www.ghanaweb.comThe Okponglo intersection located at Legon in Accra has become a dangerous road to ply due to the frequent accidents as a result of some malfunctioning traffic lights at the spot. Although most of the traffic lights at the junction are either worn out or need to be fixed, the traffic light from the Bawaleshi stretch heading towards University of Ghana is the most threatening to drivers who ply the road. For about a year now, the traffic light has been malfunctional and drivers have to use their discretion to stop or move whenever it's their turn. One of the hawkers at the Okponglo traffic light recounted that there have been many occasions when the malfunctioning traffic lights have led to accidents. Most of the drivers who spoke to GhanaWeb called on the government as a matter of urgency to fix the traffic lights to avoid loss of lives in the future.
