by  Aba Afful 2 min read

When you first arrive in Accra, one of the things you are hit with is the overwhelming traffic jams. Any resident of Accra will tell you that Accra is the haven for insane traffic. From the heartbreaking morning rush to the unbelievable hell that is the after-work drive.

However, as Accra is a large city, there are some areas that have traffic jams worse than others. These are the 7 worst traffic prone areas in Accra:

1. Tema Motorway. This like the worst place to be on your way to work especially on a Monday morning. The traffic is just absurd and there's never a shortcut, which makes it even more infuriating.

2. Airport Junction. The after-work rush in this side of the city can make you suicidal. The blaring honks from other cars and the hawkers who won't stop bothering you. It's even worse when you are in a Trotro.
