The Minister of Roads and Highways, Mr Roberts Asenso-Boakye, has charged contractors working on all inner city roads to speed up work to give the people confidence that the government is really committed to its year of roads agenda.
The Minister said this in Accra yesterday after inspecting rehabilitation works of the 24-kilometre 3-Junction to Obom Junction, Kwashiekuma to Ayikai Doblo in the Ga West Municipality.
The others are 2.5-kilometre Nuumo Ntre, Cinamon, + Liberation street at Mile 7 and the Amarmoley link roads, the Ga North, as well as the construction of long drains at 7- days Asofan, all in the Ga North Municipality.
According to him, roads in the region did not only serve as major links for the country, but for other West African countries, "as everything possible would be done to rehabilitate all bad ones to promote the economic activities of the people." Mr Asenso-Boakye also inspected the Rehabilitated Bailey Bridge linking 3 Junction and Kojo Ashong in the Ga West Municipality which had been completed and opened to traffic.
