Accra is served by the [[Aayalolo]] bus system, which was inaugurated in November 2016. It was initially planned as a [[bus rapid transit]] with dedicated lanes, but because these lanes were not provided it was renamed [[Quality Bus Corridor|Quality Bus System]] (QBS). An agreement was signed in 2019 to build a five line, {{convert|194|km|mi|abbr=on}}, automated, elevated light railway metro system called [[Accra Skytrain]]. As of 2021 construction has not commenced on the $2.6 billion project. The government said in February 2021 it intends to proceed with the project which will developed under a [[build-own-operate]] concession by private South African firm. Accra is connected by railway line to [[Kumasi]] and [[Takoradi]].<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.uktradeinvest.gov.uk/ukti/appmanager/ukti/countries;jsessionid=KTBQpDl6Xp1jtjp4NLphhKn0cT23s7p5jtpJ3DnkJcy1PSjz0Zds!89531318!NONE?_nfpb=true&portlet_3_5_actionOverride=/pub/portlets/genericViewer/showContentItem&_windowLabel=portlet_3_5&portlet_3_5navigationPageId=/ghana&portlet_3_5navigationContentPath=/BEA+Repository/326/226985&_pageLabel=CountryType1 |title=Ghana |publisher=UK Trade and Investment |date=28 April 2009 |access-date=29 October 2009}}{{dead link|date=January 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> There is a suburban railway line from [[Accra Central Station]] to [[Tema]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Accra-Tema Railway Line |website=railway-technology.com |publisher=Kable Intelligence |date=c. 2010 |url=http://www.railway-technology.com/projects/accratemarailwayline/ |access-date=23 December 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171223043814/http://www.railway-technology.com/projects/accratemarailwayline/ |archive-date=23 December 2017 |url-status=dead }}</ref> Summary: Please note that all contributions to Christianpedia may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.
