TRANSPORATION IN GHANA
In Ghana’s land transportation system, road transportation dominates in terms of both freight and passenger traffic. It is divided into three categories: trunk highways, urban roads, and feeder roads. It transports more than 95% of all passenger and freight traffic and reaches the majority of communities. The trunk road network of the nation is to be developed and maintained by the Ghana Highway Authority. The three types of trunk roads that make up Ghana’s road network are national, regional, and interregional routes. Inter-Regional roads—designated with the prefix IR—link large settlements across regional borders, whereas Regional roads—designated with the letter R—are a combination of principal and secondary routes that act as feeder roads to National roads.
