Synopsis "Driver misconduct, traffic congestion and the effectiveness of urban transportation. A case study of the Kumasi metropolis (in English)"
Master's Thesis from the year 2018 in the subject Economy - Transport Economics, grade: 65.73, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (Institute of Distance Learning), course: Msc Logistics and Supply Chain management, language: English, abstract: The main aim of this study was to determine the causes of driver misconduct and traffic congestion, examine the relationship between driver misconduct and effectiveness urban transportation. It examines the influence of traffic congestion on the relationship between driver misconduct and effectiveness of urban transportation. A case study research design was used and the Kumasi metropolis was adopted as the case. The study relied on managers of transportation stations, drivers, passengers and other people familiar with the function of the transportation sector. Data was accordingly collected from these people through the use of questionnaires. Observations were also made to confirm some of the responses. Three hundred respondents were selected through the purposive and convenient sampling techniques. The study found that the major causes of driver misconduct and traffic congestion included; talk-testing, inadequate road signs and markings and illegal crossing of pedestrians. Interestingly, the study found that driver misconduct was not a major contributor to the level of effectiveness of urban transport but that the traffic congestion due to inadequate infrastructure rather significantly affects driver misconduct. The study concludes that traffic congestion rather than driver misconduct affects the efficiency of the transport system in Ghana. It is therefore recommended that much attention should be paid to expanding the transport infrastructure to improve upon the efficiency of the transport system in Ghana.
