The Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA) on Tuesday, May 20, 2025, launched a comprehensive decongestion exercise aimed at restoring order and improving urban mobility within the city.
The operation targeted key areas, including the Central Business District and Circle Neoplan Station.
The exercise involved the removal of unauthorised structures, the eviction of street vendors, and the enforcement of sanitation and traffic regulations.
The exercise was led by the Accra Mayor, Michael Kpakpo Allotey and supported by the Ghana Police Service and National Security personnel.
AMA officials cleared pavements and bus stops that had been converted into commercial spaces, impeding pedestrian movement and public transport operations.
Myjoyonline photojournalist Sammy Moore joined the officials and captured these images during the decongestion exercise.
