Walking
From Pujehun town center, head east on the main road (often referred to as the Pujehun-Freetown highway). Continue walking straight for approximately 5 kilometers until you reach the outskirts of the town. Look for signs directing you towards Freetown. After about 30 minutes of walking, you will reach a junction where you can take a left turn towards Freetown. Follow the road for another 2 kilometers until you reach a bus stop. From here, you can ask locals for the best route towards Freetown, as the roads may vary.
Walking
Once you are at the bus stop, look for a shared taxi or motorcycle taxi (locally known as 'okada') heading towards Freetown. Make sure to negotiate the fare before getting in. The ride to Freetown will take approximately 30-45 minutes, depending on the traffic. Request the driver to drop you off at Campbell Street as you approach the city center.
Walking
After being dropped off at Campbell Street, you will be in the vicinity of the Monuments and Relics Commission. Walk towards the address '96 Campbell St, Freetown'. You can ask locals for directions if needed. The Commission is located within a government office area. It should take you about 5-10 minutes of walking from where the taxi drops you off.
