Adaklu Member of Parliament, Kwame Governs Agbodza, has asked the management of the University of Ghana to allow other vehicles to access the roads on campus due to the severe vehicular congestion around the Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration (GIMPA) area.
The Ranking Member on the Road and Transport Committee of Parliament said, he believes this will help in easing the traffic situation in and around that particular area.

“I believe this will help in easing traffic in and around the area.”
He added, “Ghana police can help them improve security patrols on campus within the same period".
“They can also help at the gates to expedite entry and exit through the gates.”
He further asked the Ministry of Roads and Highways to review the traffic regulations in some areas in order to deal with the traffic situations.
“The Ministry of Road and Highways should review traffic directions in some specific areas to ease the situation.”
