18 road infrastructure projects have been finished in the Upper West Region under the leadership of Nana Akufo Addo, according to Minister for Roads and Highways Kwasi Amoako-Attah.
Up to 110 road projects have been awarded and are now under progress, he claims.
Amoako-Attah stated during a durbar of Chiefs and People of Nandom paramountcy that Nandom has received its fair part of this significant road project across the entire nation.
The government has set aside funds to build 25 km of roads in the Nandom district, according to the member of parliament representing Atiwa West.
He also mentioned that phase one of the project, which consisted of 15 km of internal roads, was completed, and that the remaining 10 km, or phase two, would be finished on schedule.
President Akufo Addo cut sod for the 2 km dualization of internal roads in Nandom, which is a part of the N12 route that runs from Wa through Nandom to Hamile.
According to the Minister of Roads and Highway, the 2 km road will be built with a 7 km dual carriageway with two lanes, as well as a 2 m raced walkway on either side.
“The road is going to be raised to asphaltic level. We are going to do all concrete and other ancillary works along the stretch of this road. We are going to provide all road furniture around this stretch of road” he said.
Amoako Attah responded to a plea for the Nandom-Lawra and Namdom-Lambissie roads to be fixed by revealing that procedures are well under way to gratify their wish.
He estimated that the government would need to spend GHS 30 million on the Nandom-Lambussie route, and he also claimed that a contractor would be named very soon to fix the road.
Additionally, he stated that the repair of the Kambar bridge, which connects Lawra and Nandom, is about to start because four tracks are anticipated to transport the necessary supplies to the site for the start of the bridge’s repair work.
