    Walking

    From the center of Asokwa, head towards the main road, and look for the nearest bus stop on the Eastern By-Pass. You can ask locals for directions to the bus stop if you're unsure. Once at the bus stop, catch a shared taxi (known locally as 'trotro') heading towards Tafo. Make sure to confirm with the driver that they are going to Anloga Junction or the Eastern By-Pass. The fare is typically between 1 and 2 Ghanaian Cedi. The journey should take about 10-15 minutes, depending on traffic.

    If you prefer not to walk to the bus stop, you can flag down a shared taxi from anywhere in Asokwa. Simply indicate your destination by saying 'Anloga Junction' to the driver. The fare may vary, but it is usually around 5 Ghanaian Cedi. The shared taxi will drop you off near the junction.
