Bibiani (WN/R), Nov. 12, GNA — A rainstorm has destroyed newly installed traffic lights at Bibiani in the Western North Region, barely a week after their installation.
The rainstorm, which hit the town on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, lasted for nearly three hours and was accompanied by lightning and strong winds that brought down the traffic lights.
The incident has left motorists and pedestrians struggling to navigate the busy road, raising concerns about road safety and the risk of accidents.
Some residents who spoke to the Ghana News Agency expressed concern about the quality of the installation work, suspecting that shoddy by the contractor might have contributed to the destruction of the traffic lights.
They have, therefore, called on the relevant authorities to investigate the incident, ensure that the contractor addressed any identified lapses and restore the traffic lights as soon as possible to safeguard motorists and pedestrians.
