Dear Editor,

I wish to commend the on-going construction work on the Tema-Accra Beach road. The portion from Nun­gua to La has been completed and the stretch from La- Ac­cra is expected to be done within schedule.

While I urged the con­tractors to finish hard, I am unable to tell why there are no road markings on parts of the road that had been completed.

Apart from other traffic installations, road markings are important in ensuring the safety of drivers and pedes­trians. It helps drivers to find their lane, especially at night and also direct pedestrians to where they are supposed to cross the road.

I do not want to believe that the contractors intend to complete the entire project before they mark the road, as expected of them. The road markings could be done simultaneously as the project continued and should not be postponed till later as we are likely to forget.

I, therefore, encourage the contractors to take note of this and do the needful as soon as possible.

Mavis Koranteng, Tema.
