5% progress on Suame Interchange Phase One inadequate – Roads Minister tasks contractor to speed up work
The Roads and Highways Minister, Kwame Governs Agbodza, has directed the contractor working on the first phase of the Suame Interchange project in Kumasi, Rango Construction, to accelerate work, describing the current 5% progress as inadequate.
The Roads and Highways Minister, Kwame Governs Agbodza, has ordered the contractor, Rango Construction, to expedite work on the Suame Interchange project's first phase in Kumasi, describing the current 5% progress as insufficient. During a site inspection, he emphasized the need for design review meetings to be conducted on-site within a single day, rather than across weeks.
Agbodza urged the contractor and consultants to collaborate in resolving outstanding design issues without further delays. The Ashanti Regional Urban Roads Director, Engineer Nana Poku Agyemang, pledged to collaborate with the contractor to hasten discussions and ensure swift progress. He proposed a crash programme involving additional workers, logistics, and extended working hours to make up for lost time.
By the end of the week, the parties involved should conduct a design review on-site to expedite the project's completion, which is expected to improve traffic flow and reduce congestion around Suame.
