Press Release: Unauthorized   Billboard at the Flowerpot Interchange

August 20, 2025 Press release

FOR  IMMEDIATE     RELEASE

20.08.2025

UNAUTHORIZED      BILLBOARD    AT THE  FLOWERPOT     INTERCHANGE

The Ministry of Roads and Highways has observed with  concern the installation  of an unauthorized  billboard at a section of the Flowerpot  Interchange.

2. The  Ministry  has also taken notice of a recent  press release from  the Students  Loan Trust  Fund, which  disclaims ownership  of the  billboard  and cautions  the  public against unauthorized  use of its logo.

3. We wish to remind the public that such installations  violate  regulations  set by the Ghana  Standards   Authority’s   “Advertisement   Specification   for  Outdoor   Signs”  (GS 847:2019),  Section 5, as well as Sections 11 and 15 of Act 540, and Section 188 of the Road Traffic  Regulations, 2012 (LI 2180).

4. Through  this  release, the  Ministry  calls upon  the  Ledzokuku  Municipal  Assembly  to work  closely  with  the  Department  of  Urban  Roads for  the  immediate   removal  of  the billboard.  We  also  urge  all assemblies  to  collaborate  with  the  relevant  regional  road agencies before issuing permits for advertisements  or notices along road corridors.

5. Furthermore,  we appeal to the Advertising Association of Ghana to strictly  enforce its code of conduct  regarding  the installation  of outdoor  advertising  structures.

6. The Ministry of Roads and Highways remains committed  to ensuring  road safety and protecting  our road infrastructure  for the benefit of all.

END
