GAF hands over cleared 175.6km right-of-way for Accra-Kumasi Expressway today
President John Mahama is expected to receive the 175.6-kilometre right-of-way clearance for the construction of the Accra-Kumasi Expressway today, Monday, September 14.
President John Mahama is set to receive clearance for the 175.6-kilometre right-of-way required to build the Accra-Kumasi Expressway on Monday, September 14. This clearance, provided by the Ghana Armed Forces engineers, removes a significant obstacle to the commencement of construction on the 198.7-kilometre project, which is the most substantial capital investment by any government in Ghana's history.
The right-of-way refers to the legally acquired land necessary for the construction, operation, maintenance, and future expansion of the expressway. The ceremony will take place at Kwaso, near Ejisu, signifying a crucial step towards realizing this vital road infrastructure project. Presidential Spokesperson Felix Kwakye Ofosu announced the handover in a Facebook post on Sunday, highlighting the positive impact the expressway will have on connectivity between the Greater Accra and Ashanti regions, and on the movement of people and goods along this crucial economic corridor.
