To solve the perennial flooding of the Atafoa bridge in Kumasi which renders it impassable and associated consequences to users, government has reconstructed it.
Commissioning the bridge on November 26, President Akufo-Addo said the intervention represents safety, accessibility, and opportunity.
Between 2022 and 2023, ten persons lost their lives whilst attempting to cross the flooded Atafoa bridge.
The bridge links Kumasi to Offinso and the northern part of the country.
