Kasoa-Winneba dualisation project progresses

Work on the rehabilitation and upgrading of the 30-kilometre Kasoa-Winneba road into a dual carriage road is progressing steadily.

Date Created : 7/17/2024 : Story Author : Irene Kwakye/Ghanadistricts.com

The construction of the road involves 16 kilometres of service roads, the construction of interchanges at Budumburam, Awutu Bereku and Akotsi Junctions, as well as a flyover at Sapato.

It also includes the construction of 16 footbridges, 15 box and 51 pipe culverts, and walkways. Extra service lanes would also be provided at all entry points to the main dualised road to assist commercial drivers to pick up and drop off passengers. Beyond that, it would ease vehicular traffic congestion to boost tourism, education and commerce

The current single-lane road is being turned into a double-lane to ease traffic and reduce the spate of accidents on that stretch, considered to be one of the most accident-prone roads in the country.

The project has great socio-economic relevance to the area and the nation and government remain committed to ensuring its completion as scheduled.
