The Ghana Highway Authority (GHA) has announced a temporary traffic management arrangement at the Tetteh Quarshie Interchange and along the Accra-Tema Motorway, effective Sunday, June 22, 2025. This disruption is a critical component of the ongoing Accra-Tema Motorway and Extensions Project, which spans 19.5 kilometers, and specifically aims to facilitate central pier construction works for the expansion of the Tetteh Quarshie Interchange Bridge.

According to a press release issued by the Public Affairs Department of the GHA on June 19, 2025, these construction activities are anticipated to lead to notable traffic congestion on this key route. To provide a safe working space for construction personnel and to ensure the continued safety of all road users, the number of lanes on the North-South bound carriageway (from Madina to Accra direction) and vice versa will be temporarily reduced from four to three.

The GHA stated that this adjustment will take effect from June 22, 2025, and is expected to last for approximately four months. The authority underscored the necessity of this lane reduction for both worker and road user safety. Motorists are strongly urged to exercise caution while driving, diligently follow all directional signs, and cooperate fully with traffic management officials throughout the entire duration of the work to minimize inconvenience and ensure smooth flow.
