Many drivers entering the city were stuck in a long traffic jam stretching meters away from the toll booth while a lucky few enjoyed clear roads in the other direction.
The interchange was closed Tuesday morning, and according to the Brazilian construction firm, Queiroz Galvao, the road will be opened to traffic on Saturday April 8.
Many commercial drivers who spoke to Pulse.com.gh said they were not informed about the closure of the road.
“They just closed the road today without telling anybody,” one commercial driver said.
Another said: “They did not make provision for alternative route for us to use. They know Kasoa is a busy town so they cannot just close the road at will.”
Another commercial driver appealed to the government to intervene because the traffic chaos is unbearable.
