Students, residents call for speed ramps at UEW Ajumako campus gate
Students, residents, and motorists are calling on authorities to construct speed ramps on the main road in front of the University of Education, Winneba (UEW) Ajumako Campus to curb speeding and improve road safety. Residents state the stretch of road has become increasingly dangerous as some motorists exceed the speed limit despite the presence of the university and several basic and secondary schools in the area. They fear the situation could result in a fatal accident if urgent action is not taken.
The road serves as a major crossing point for university students, schoolchildren, teachers, traders, and residents, particularly during the morning and afternoon peak periods. Community members say children are especially at risk because of the excessive speed of some vehicles. Some students have also raised concerns about the dangers of crossing the road during lecture hours, citing the absence of traffic-calming measures such as speed ramps and designated pedestrian crossings. Residents are appealing to the Ghana Highway Authority, the Ministry of Roads and Highways, and other relevant agencies to install speed ramps, pedestrian crossings, and appropriate road safety signs.
