The deplorable nature of sections of the Sunyani-Kumasi road remains a death trap to passengers and drivers who use the highway.<\/p>\n
During a visit, the Ghana News Agency sighted some trenches had developed at certain sections along the Abesewa-Nsuta corridor of the highway.<\/p>\n
The visit was necessitated by the persistent complaints from commercial drivers and passengers at some bus terminals in Sunyani.<\/p>\n
They said the situation has been reported the Brong-Ahafo Regional secretariat of the Ghana Private Road Transport Union (GPRTU), but nothing had been done.<\/p>\n
As the rains set in, the visit revealed the trenches, close to\u00a0a bamboo plantation on both sides of the highway, are fast spreading to other portions.<\/p>\n
Mr. Chereh Diabour, a passenger told the Ghana News Agency that several fatal accidents have been recorded at that particular section of the road.<\/p>\n
Some of the drivers also expressed the fear that, with the onset of the harmattan (dry season), the unexpected could happen, as that area of the road was sharply-curved and narrowed.<\/p>\n
Frank Agyamang, a Benz 207 bus driver, appealed to institutions like the Ghana Highway Authority to act swiftly to forestall any accident on that route.<\/p>\n
