Students and commuters on the campus of Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology have been urged to exercise caution following severe flooding caused by heavy rainfall that swept through the area.
The downpour led to rising water levels that submerged the bridge along the popular Mecca Road, making the route unsafe for both pedestrians and motorists. Videos and images circulating on social media showed floodwaters overflowing the bridge, forcing many road users to seek alternative routes.
University authorities and concerned individuals have advised students to avoid the affected area until water levels recede. Those who must travel through nearby sections of the campus have been encouraged to remain vigilant and prioritize their safety.
The flooding has once again raised concerns about drainage infrastructure and flood management on parts of the KNUST campus, especially during periods of intense rainfall. Some students expressed frustration over recurring flooding incidents that disrupt movement and pose risks to lives and property.
As weather conditions remain unpredictable, members of the university community are being urged to stay informed, heed safety directives, and avoid attempting to cross flooded areas.
No injuries or casualties had been reported at the time of filing this report, but authorities continue to monitor the situation closely.
