Takoradi–Agona Nkwanta road to open to traffic by November – Contractor
The 23-kilometre Takoradi–Agona Nkwanta road is expected to be opened to traffic in November 2026, following an acceleration of rehabilitation and dualisation works on the project.
The Takoradi–Agona Nkwanta road in Ghana's Western Region is set to open to traffic by November 2026, according to Justmoh Construction Limited's Managing Director, Dr Justice Amoh. The 23-kilometre project, which involves converting the single carriageway into a dual carriageway and constructing four major concrete bridges, was previously delayed due to funding issues.
However, the contractor has accelerated its work by increasing resources and has completed the project four months ahead of the original deadline of March 19, 2027. The remaining tasks include road protection measures, installing guardrails and road markings. Amoh highlighted axle-load violations as a significant concern, urging the public to address the issue to ensure the road's durability.
Once completed, the improved road is expected to ease movement between Takoradi and Agona Junction and enhance transport links in the region.
