Government is to move the Bolgatanga–Bawku and Tema–Aflao road projects onto the Big Push programme, the Minister for Roads and Highways, Kwame Governs Agbodza, has announced.

He said the move is to ensure accelerated funding and timely completion of the two critical road corridors.

Speaking on ongoing road works across the country, Mr Agbodza noted that both roads are of major economic and social importance, linking communities, markets, and neighbouring countries.

According to him, placing the projects under the Big Push will guarantee sustained financing and closer supervision to prevent the delays that have affected them in the past.

He stressed that government remains committed to improving the national road network, and expects contractors to deliver quality work on schedule.

Mr Agbodza added that the Bolgatanga–Bawku and Tema–Aflao roads, when completed, will boost trade, ease movement, and improve safety for motorists and residents along the corridors.
