Motorists utilizing the Kojokrom-Takoradi main thoroughfare are expressing frustration over the deplorable condition of the road. Certain segments of the route, particularly between the fitting and Obokrom junctions, have significantly deteriorated, forming sizable potholes.
The recent heavy rainfall in the area exacerbated the road’s poor state, posing challenges for commuters. Some drivers voiced concerns that the road’s condition is causing frequent vehicle breakdowns, leading to unexpected expenses.
The presence of large potholes, notably along the Ahinkofi to Kojokrom stretch, results in traffic congestion, especially during peak hours. A recent investigation by *DAILY GUIDE* observed drivers cautiously navigating the road, sometimes spending up to an hour traversing the affected area.
Drivers allege that a contractor tasked with road maintenance merely deposited sand and gravel, which has since eroded, exacerbating the road’s deterioration. Urgent calls are now directed at city authorities to prioritize the reconstruction of the road to alleviate commuters’ plight.
