Mr Yaw-Doe Tamakloe, the Director in-charge of Operations, SSO, said their continuous support for the Authority was as the result of the existing working relationship between the two.

He therefore expressed the SSO's preparedness to build on that working relationship and work together to stir the ship ofroad safety in the country..

Mr Tamakloe noted that the traffic situations in the urban areas and the metropolis continue to be a challenge for both drivers and travelers, and expressed the hope that authorities in charge would address the problem to bring sanity back in the cities.

"We, at SSO hope to continue to be an effective partner in road safety administration in Ghana," he added.

He also appealed to the MTTD of the Ghana Police Service to tow away broken-down vehicles on the road early to curb accidents, especially during the festivities.

He further urged them to continue the highway patrols to check reckless driving on the roads, especially during the festivities.

Mr Tamakloe also congratulated Mr David S. Adonteng, the Acting Director-General of NRSA for his promotion to head the Authority, adding, "you have work assiduously to attain that feat and on behalf of SSO we congratulate you for this new achievement".

Mr Adonteng, on his part, thanked the SSO for their continuous support for the Authority's activities, which he said resulted in the current reduction in road accidents from January to October, this year.

He said the period records about 16 per cent reduction in road accidents as compared to last year's record during the same period.

The Acting Director-General attributed the success chalked to the numerous support from stakeholders, including SSO and the media.

"The decrease shows that something good is coming from some where and this is unprecedented in the history of the Authority, and I give the credit to our partners for continuous assistance and equipping us to enhance our work."
