The Tamale 3rd Ring Road, constructed as part of Ghana's Big Push Infrastructure Programme, is advancing at a rapid pace, with two sections already completed ahead of schedule. The Ministry of Roads and Highways reports that Lot One, stretching from Banvim to Jisonayili and being built by China Railway No. 5, is 36.50 percent complete.

Lastly, Lot Three, encompassing the Kanvilli–Vittin Barrier section under Munisco Limited, is 43 percent complete and also ahead of schedule.

This road traverses several communities including Kanvilli, Tuunayili, Fuo, Vittin, Banvim, Datoyili, Shishegu, Kpalsi, Gurugu, and Jisonayili.
