AMA boss engages street traders ahead of decongestion exercise in Accra on May 20

The Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA) has begun a major decongestion exercise aimed at removing street traders from the Central Business District (CBD) to restore order and improve sanitation in the city centre.

In the early hours of Tuesday, May 20, 2025, AMA task forces, supported by the Ghana Police Service, carried out a coordinated operation to dismantle makeshift stalls, unauthorised kiosks, and remove vendors who had taken over pavements and roadsides across key parts of the CBD.

According to the AMA, the operation forms part of renewed efforts to enforce city bylaws, ease congestion, and ensure the safe movement of both pedestrians and vehicles.

The first phase of the exercise is focused on areas surrounding the AMA Head Office, including Kinbu Road to Railways, ECG Junction to the King Tackie Tawiah Statue, and Opera Square through to Adabraka.
