Ghana Highways Authority

The Ghana Highway Authority (GHA) was established as a body corporate by GHA Degree 1974 (NRCD 298). NRCD 298 was repealed by GHA Act 1997 (Act 540 ) which, however, continued the Authority in existence with responsibility for the administration, control, development and maintenance of the country's trunk road network totalling 13,367 km and related facilities. GHA's 13,367 km trunk roads make about 33% of Ghana's total road network of 40,186 km.[1][2]

gollark: Yes. Also working: wscat, the node.js `ws` package's client, and Firefox on my phone; it's probably *somewhat* on Firefox's end, but I imagine it might be some weird interaction between the server and client.
gollark: As I said, if this is somehow a webserver issue, I'm hoping caddy 2 will fix it, so I'm reading the docs to prepare for an upgrade to that.
gollark: Its internal HTTP logs, which I figured out how to get it to dump, do appear to show it doing *something*, but I don't understand them enough to say what.
gollark: The really weird thing is that Firefox didn't actually seem to be *sending* any request or whatever for the websockets. Nothing appears in devtools, wireshark didn't show anything websocket-looking (although I am not very good at using it, I think it was working because it showed the regular HTTP requests), mitmproxy didn't say anything either, and the webserver logs don't show it.
gollark: I've decided to just update caddy and see if that helps, since I am a bit overdue for switching to v2.
