Motorists and passengers have been stranded for over eight hours in a severe gridlock on the Nkawkaw stretch of the Accra-Kumasi road.
The heavy traffic has caused significant frustration, with many passengers abandoning their vehicles to walk in an attempt to reach their destinations.

The gridlock, exacerbated by ongoing construction, has made it difficult for police and local authorities to clear the roads.
Driver Kwakye Badu, who had been stuck since 2 a.m., expressed his frustration, urging contractors to speed up the work.

In the scorching heat, passengers walked from Akyem Sekyere, trying to navigate through the stationary vehicles.
Normally, the journey from Koforidua to Nkawkaw takes just two hours, but the situation has left many stranded much longer.
