Sierra Leone Road Safety Authority (SLRSA) in collaboration with key stakeholders in the transport sector will today Monday 6th December,2021 commence ‘ Operation Decongest Freetown’.
The efforts to decongest the streets came after the Transport and Internal Affairs Committee in Parliament recommended for such following the Wellington Fire Disaster which claimed the lives of many Sierra Leoneans.
