The Ghana Institution of Engineers president says Accra's infrastructure development over the past 30 or 40 years has been fundamentally flawed, with water-retention areas filled and development encroaching on natural waterways, causing water to travel from Aburi to Accra in an hour instead of 12 hours and intensifying flooding vulnerability.
The president of the Ghana Institution of Engineers says human activity—including unauthorised developments in waterways and the destruction of natural drainage buffers—has significantly compromised Accra's water retention systems, worsening recurring floods. He cited areas such as Sakumono, Teshie and Korle being reclaimed and developed, and noted that drainage channels are filled with silt, rubbish and plastic waste.
The Ghana Institution of Engineers President says Accra's worsening flooding is the result of decades of poor planning, environmental degradation, and unregulated development that has destroyed the city's natural flood-control systems. Flooding has shifted from an occasional occurrence to an annual reality as water-retention areas and low-lying lands have been filled and development has occurred in unsuitable areas.
The Ghana Institution of Engineers says it is preparing a collective response to Ghana's recurring flooding challenges following heavy rains on June 3 that affected parts of Accra.
