Many Work Sites Put Douala In Traffic Congestion

Many roads are under rehabilitation and so the different passage roads have reduced and are causing traffic congestion.

As early as 7:00 am, traffic congestion starts announcing itself in some major roads in Douala and passage becomes difficult such that people even make an hour or more on the same spot. The situation has been on for about three weeks now and there has been constant lateness to work especially for those who stay around areas like Bonamoussadi, Kotto, Makepe, Logpom, Deido, among others.
Traffic congestion is more serious in the mornings when people are rushing to their various job sites and business places and everybody is trying to ply the road. Taxis, pedestrians, moto bikes, personal cars, etc and the fighting to pass is serious this time there is no respect of priority to pass. There is also no respecter of persons. The only thing the try to respect is the presence of a uniformed officer which sometimes is under looked.
A lady who works in a prestigious office who wanted to be anonymous said she was blocked in traffic for more than an hour on the same spot meanwhile she left her house quite early enough to get to work in time.
The road at Rue de la joie is blocked because there is working going on there, there are two roads which could be used, are Rue Kotto and Deido plage. Therefore all vehicles coming from Kotto, Bonamoussadi, Akwa Nord, Makepe, Logpom, among others converge on these two roads now each struggling to pass. Everybody wants to have the priority to pass thereby no one is able to pass, they are all stocked. Therefore it causes some serious traffic and it is the ability of forcing to pass which causes the congestion. The road is usually clear ahead but there is congestion behind. Causing people to spend hours on one sport
For the case of Rue Benedict, there is congestion at CCC, IPD, Mboppi because vehicles coming from the peripheries, Ndokotti, Logbessou, Logpom, Makepe, Kotto and those trying to escape from the traffic around Diedo find themselves in the same web in this part of the town.
The greatest part is at Akwa were in the areas boulevard Soudanais, Carrefour Arno, Carrefour ancien Direction Douane, ancien Dalip where there is constant traffic at early all hours.
It is believed in a little while the nightmares will be over and the inhabitants have to support it for a while so that the roads in Douala will be beautiful too.
