The National Road Safety Authority (NRSA) has dismantled more than 120 advertising boards erected without authorisation on road medians in parts of Greater Accra.

The removal exercise, led by NRSA Director-General Abraham Amaliba, involved the Authority’s Technical Advisor and officials from its Greater Accra Regional Team.

The team worked along a route stretching from the Supreme Court, passing through the Ridge Roundabout and the Trades Union Congress (TUC), before ending at the Mövenpick Ambassador Hotel.

The Authority said the intervention was intended to eliminate visual obstructions, improve visibility for motorists and make it safer for pedestrians to move along and cross the affected roads.

In a Facebook update on Sunday, November 8, the NRSA said clearing the unauthorised installations was part of its wider efforts to promote safer road use and improve order within the urban environment.

It added that the exercise was aimed at protecting pedestrians and other road users by ensuring that road medians and surrounding spaces were not occupied by structures that could compromise safety.
