The Tarkwa-Nsuaem Municipal Assembly (TNMA) has issued a strong warning to car owners and vehicle dealers who park vehicles meant for sale or faulty cars along public roads within the municipality.
According to the Assembly, the increasing practice of using streets as car sale points or dumping grounds for broken-down vehicles has become a nuisance and poses serious inconvenience to other road users.
In a public notice signed by Sanda Umaru, the Head of Security, the Assembly directed all affected persons to remove such vehicles from public roads with immediate effect.
The Assembly stressed that public roads are not designated car markets and should not be used as such under any circumstances.
To enforce the directive, TNMA announced that its Assembly Guards, in collaboration with the Motor Traffic and Transport Department (MTTD) of the Ghana Police Service, will begin clamping or towing vehicles found parked on streets for sale or abandoned due to mechanical faults. Offenders will be surcharged accordingly.
The Assembly is therefore urging all car owners and dealers to comply with the directive to avoid sanctions, as enforcement takes effect immediately.
TNMA reiterated its commitment to maintaining order, safety, and free movement on roads across the municipality.
