Keta-Axim water transport route moves a step closer as government commissions feasibility study

Plans to introduce a coastal water transport service between Keta in the Volta Region and Axim in the Western Region have advanced, with government engaging consultants to determine whether the proposed route can be successfully developed.

If the project receives the green light, communities and passengers travelling between the Volta and Western regions could have an additional transport option through a coastal route linking Keta and Axim.

The Ministry of Transport has contracted Vision Consult, working with KPMG, to undertake a six-month feasibility assessment of the project.
