Director of Education, Research and Training at the Motor Traffic and Transport Department (MTTD), ACP Alexander Obeng, announced that officers will be deployed to monitor and apprehend drivers who use pedestrian footbridges. This action is intended to enforce road safety regulations and ensure footbridges are used solely for pedestrians, according to ACP Obeng. He also highlighted concerns about hawkers occupying these bridges, stating that political interference has hampered efforts by the Police and Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies (MMDAs) to remove them. ACP Obeng emphasized the need for enhanced enforcement and collaboration among stakeholders to maintain the proper use of footbridges and improve pedestrian safety.
