DAILY GRAPHIC, Wednesday, October 9, 2012, Pg.48. Rain causes flood on portion of N1 highway Rain causes flood on portion of N1 highway


Story & picture: Mary Ankrah

Portions of the Abeka Lapaz  section of the N1 highway last Friday got flooded after a down pour of rain between 3:15 p.m. and 3: 40 p.m.

The situation affected smooth driving on that stretch of the road as drivers hard a hard time trying to manoeuvre in the flowing water, causing a huge traffic on the road.

Pedestrians also had difficulties crossing  the road due to the water on the streets, creating an opportunity for some young persons to make money by offering to carry people across for a fee of GHC1.00.

Many people had to walk barefooted in order to walk in the pool of water that had collect over a large portion of the road.
