Abstract: Despite the separation of rural and urban water services under models of service delivery suitable to rural and urban areas in Ghana, there is still evidence of urban water service extensions to some rural communities. Using content analysis of the mainstream literature and documentary report, the study reveals that there are overlapping stakeholder roles as some rural communities are still connected to urban water services, yet not given preferential treatment under water tariff regulation and policy provisions. This leads to water tariff arrears in affected rural areas compared with their urban counterparts.
