Reconstruction works has started on a portion of the Madina market which was gutted by fire on April 10, this year in the La Nkwantanang Madina Municipality in the Greater Accra Region.
This follows the successful relocation of the affected traders who were given August 31 deadline by the Municipal Assembly to vacate the area to the car park for work to begin on September 1.
The new edifice expected to be completed in three months would contain 120 stores, 78 smaller shops, fire tender base, revenue offices, banking spaces, sanitation and disability ramps, and washrooms.
The project is been undertaken by AMMA Integrated Construction, with FeDems serving as the consultants.
