New Dansoman drainage to measure 2 metres high and 5 metres wide – Engineer Tsegah

Engineer Kwaku Tsegah revealed that the upcoming underground drainage system at Dansoman Junction, colloquially called Hansonic, will stand 2 metres tall and span 5 metres in width. The engineer from Ablekuma North Municipality explained that the new drainage would be dug underground, with its surface forming a roadway. Tsegah stated that the new system would be considerably larger than the existing one, which had long been inadequate to manage the water volume in the region.

The project falls under the purview of the Department of Urban Roads, aimed at tackling the recurring flooding and drainage issues at the bustling Dansoman Junction. He elaborated that the initial phase entails redirecting and halting the flow of water into the old drainage system, allowing for the secure construction of the new underground drain.

The new drainage is anticipated to enhance stormwater flow, offering a durable resolution to the flooding that has plagued the area for years. Upon completion, the project is also expected to improve road access and conditions around the busy junction.
