The Ministry of Roads and Highways has stated the government’s intention to expand the Ashaiman-Akosombo road to alleviate congestion on the stretch.
According to the sector minister, Kwasi Amoako Atta contractors have begun road rehabilitation.
Mr. Amoako Atta said during a ceremony at Afienya where President Akufo-Addo dedicated a 900-meter road over-bridge across the railway that drivers who travel the eastern corridor lot 1 will soon be able to breathe easier.
“This part of the bridge which is going to be commissioned will form part of the dualisation of this road because a greater part of Akosombo to Tema is going to be dualised and very soon the congestion that is being experienced on this road will be a thing of the past.
The contractors as I said are fully mobilised on site and have started working and the people of this area and the country as a whole are going to benefit,” Mr. Amoako Atta said.
