Police to Add TraffiTech Camera and Speed-Limit Warning Signs on Ghanaian Roads

ACCRA, GHANA — The Ghana Police Service says warning signs identifying speed limits and camera-assisted enforcement locations will be installed during the week beginning November 9, 2026, at sites where TraffiTech-GH monitoring is operating without adequate signage.

Assistant Commissioner of Police Alexander Kwaku Obeng, Director of Education, Research and Training at the Motor Traffic and Transport Department, outlined the plan during a public discussion on November 7. He said the Police would work with road agencies to improve information available to motorists.

The signage plan follows public questions about the visibility of speed-monitoring locations since the rollout of the technology. Signs are also expected where officers use in-vehicle cameras for enforcement.

TraffiTech-GH was introduced to help enforce road traffic regulations using electronic evidence. The system's initial phase has focused on speeding, with additional functions planned for later stages. The Ghana Police Service has published guidance on electronic violation notices and the approved process for verifying them.

The announcement is a commitment to install additional signs, not confirmation that every location has already been marked. Drivers remain responsible for following posted speed limits regardless of the location of monitoring equipment.

Motorists receiving traffic notifications should check the official sender ID and verify the ticket through recognised Police channels before paying. The Police say genuine electronic notices use GPS-MTTD as the sender identification.

The effectiveness of the camera programme will depend in part on clear signage, transparent enforcement processes and independently assessed road-safety results.
