If you are travelling through Kumasi Central Business District today, areas such as Adum, Kejetia Market and the roads around Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital can become busy quickly, especially during peak trading and commuting periods.
At the time of checking, there is no verified major accident report specifically covering the Adum–Kejetia–Komfo Anokye CBD corridor today. However, normal congestion and short traffic delays can still occur because of market activity, commercial vehicles, pedestrians and road works.
Traffic Around Adum Today
Adum is one of Kumasi’s busiest commercial areas. Traffic can build up around major junctions and connecting streets as taxis, buses, private cars, delivery vehicles and pedestrians compete for limited road space.
Drivers heading through Adum should allow extra time during busy periods and avoid unnecessary stops along already congested streets.
Kejetia Market Traffic
The Kejetia area is another major traffic pressure point in central Kumasi. The market and transport terminal generate significant movement throughout the day.
Expect possible delays around:
- Kejetia Market and the transport terminal
- Kejetia Roundabout
- Roads connecting Adum and Kejetia
- Routes used by commercial vehicles and delivery vans
If you are collecting or delivering goods around Kejetia, confirming the exact pickup point before leaving can help reduce unnecessary waiting.
Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital Roundabout
Traffic around the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital area can also slow when there is heavy movement of ambulances, taxis, commercial vehicles and private cars.
Drivers should keep junctions and hospital access points clear, particularly when emergency vehicles are approaching.

Tribal and Cultural Considerations When Travelling Through Kumasi
Kumasi is culturally diverse and attracts people from different parts of Ghana and neighbouring countries. Visitors should avoid making assumptions about people based on ethnicity or language.
When arranging a pickup, delivery or meeting in the CBD, use the exact business name, landmark and street location rather than relying only on local descriptions. This can make navigation easier, especially around busy market areas.
