Mayor of Accra leads an enforcement exercise, clamping vehicles, motorbikes parked on the shoulders of road

The Mayor of Accra, Hon. Michael Kpakpo Allotey, has led a special enforcement exercise to clamp down on indiscriminate parking along major roads in the city, warning that the Assembly would not tolerate practices that contribute to congestion and endanger pedestrians.

The operation, carried out on Wednesday morning, targeted motorcycles and vehicles parked along road shoulders, around the Rawlings Park, Tudu stretch of the Kwame Nkrumah Avenue as well as other unauthorised spaces within the Central Business District.

Speaking during the exercise, Hon. Allotey said the move formed part of the Assembly’s ongoing efforts to instil discipline and reset the city’s image emphasising that although enforcement was sometimes perceived as harsh, it was necessary to ensure public safety and maintain order.
