Abstract
This paper discusses some of the changes that occurred due to the introduction of motorised transportin Ghana, as viewed through the lens of Accra’s Tudu Lorry Park and bus stops. Specifically, we discusshow Tudu Lorry Park has been politically connected to Ghana’s politics from the colonial period to thepresent. This paper argues that the complex relationship between local networks, such as drivers’associations, and Ghanaian Politics, can be better understood through the operations of lorry parks,examples of which include those in Accra, Ghana.
