Greda Estate roads need facelift

Dear Editor,

I travel from Spintex to the Central Business District in Accra every morning and I get incensed any day my vehicle makes a detour through Greda Estates at Teshie.

The road in this locality is in a sorry state, to say the least, and I wonder who is responsible for making it motorable. Commercial vehicles and private cars use the stretch in order to beat traffic jam, especially on busy working days.

But the road is partly dusty and the gully of potholes often does not allow commuters to reach their destinations on time. It appears the link roads in the estate had not seen any major facelift ever since houses in the area were built.

Recently, I noticed some drains were being constructed to prevent parts of the estate from getting flooded during downpour and I thought reconstruction of the bad roads would follow as the drains were being fixed but it is not so.

I believe residents may be doing their best to have the road fixed but they need to mount pressure, once again, on the appropriate authorities for it to be done on time.

Better still, resident associations may pool resources together to put the road back in shape before it deteriorates further.

Bright Donkor,

Baatsona, Accra.
