Metro Mass to deploy more buses in Accra to help deal with congestion and fare hikes by private commercial bus operators

January 14, 2026

As an interim measure to help deal with the current commuter congestion being experienced in Accra amid transport fare hikes by private transport operators, the government has ordered the Metro Mass Limited (MML) to immediately repair all its broken-down buses and deploy them in Accra to help deal with the congestion.

Accra has been experiencing commuter congestion, especially at peak hours in the evenings, which private commercial bus operators have taken advantage of to hike fares even though fuel prices have gone down.
