The Ghana Police Service has completed the nationwide deployment of officers and cameras as the TraffiTech-GH digital traffic enforcement system began on Sunday, 1 November 2026.
According to Modern Ghana, cameras in police vehicles and on tripods will capture motorists exceeding speed limits. The Motor Traffic and Transport Department (MTTD) will review the footage and send electronic violation notices by text message to registered vehicle owners.
The messages will show GPS as the sender and give the vehicle registration number, the date, time and location of the alleged offence, with a link to video evidence, Citi Newsroom reported.
The MTTD's Director of Education, Research and Training, ACP Alexander Kwaku Obeng, said the speed limits are 50km/h in built-up areas, 90km/h on highways and 100km/h on motorways. He estimated that speeding accounts for about 60 per cent of road deaths and serious injuries.
ACP Obeng said more than 70,000 caution notices were issued between 10 September and 31 October, and that police had now moved from cautions to active enforcement under Regulation 242 on automated road traffic offences and fines.
The rollout comes despite threats by commercial transport operators to withdraw services nationwide from 1 November in protest.
