Some areas affected include Odaw, Avenor, Dansoman among others.
Meanwhile, a military team is moving to the areas with speed boats to help rescue some of the residents in homes filled with floodwater.
Vehicular traffic has also been blocked along the Kwame Nkrumah Circle Interchange and other link roads.
