Heavy traffic congestion gripped the Kasoa stretch on Monday, May 13, following a downpour around 4pm.
The unusual congestion was attributed to silt and filth washed onto the road by the rain, blocking some roads and hindering vehicle movement.

Social media users reported that the flooding around SCC and Old Barrier forced vehicles from Kasoa to Mallam to merge with those heading towards Kasoa from Mallam, exacerbating the gridlock.
The traffic situation, which lasted for over 9 hours, compelled drivers of heavy-duty trucks bound for the Central and Western Regions to park as roads became impassable.
