The Minister of Transport, Joseph Bukari Nikpe, has assured the public that the Tema-Mpakadan Railway Line will become operational in the coming days.

Former President Akufo-Addo officially commissioned the 97-kilometer Tema-Mpakadan Railway Line-a transformative infrastructure project aimed at revolutionising Ghana's transportation sector.

The commissioning ceremony, held at the Tema Harbour on November 22, 2024, marked the opening of Ghana's first standard-gauge railway.

Valued at $447 million, the project was funded through a credit facility from the India Exim Bank.
