The1957News recently spoke with several women in the city's Central Business District to gather their opinions on the project. The responses were varied. "The roads are definitely less crowded," said one woman, "but it's also made it harder to find parking for my business." Another woman shared a different perspective: "I think it's a good thing, even though it's causing some initial disruption. It's about time they did something about the traffic here." The interviews highlight the complexities of urban renewal projects. While some residents appreciate the improvements in traffic flow, others express concerns about the impact on businesses and daily routines. The Accra decongestion project continues to evolve, and the opinions of residents will play a crucial role in its success.
