COMMUNIQUΓ ON ROAD TRANSPORT OPERATIONS IN DZODZE
I met with the Dzodze Driversβ Union and reached a firm resolution regarding vehicular loading within our municipality. The meeting, held in the spirit of orderliness and improved transport management, sought to address challenges associated with roadside loading and its negative impact on traffic flow, safety, and the overall image of our municipality.
After careful deliberations, we unanimously agreed that, with immediate effect, no driver shall load passengers by the roadside. All drivers are henceforth required to operate strictly from the designated lorry stations. This directive is aimed at ensuring discipline, improving passenger safety, and promoting efficient transport operations within Dzodze and its environs.
The Municipal Assembly, under my leadership and in collaboration with the Driversβ Union and the Police will work hand in hand to enforce this directive. I therefore urge all drivers and stakeholders to adhere strictly to this resolution. I count on the cooperation of the public and transport operators in ensuring that this policy is implemented successfully for the benefit of all.
Thank you
