The Minister for Roads and Highways, Kwame Governs Agbodza, has urged contractors working on road projects across the country to explore working at dawn and extending their working hours to fast track construction.

He said the move will help accelerate work, reduce delays, and keep road projects on schedule.

The Minister made the call while speaking on the need to speed up ongoing road works across the country, stressing that government is determined to deliver an improved road network for Ghanaians.

He noted that many road projects have suffered persistent delays, causing serious inconvenience to motorists, commuters, and residents in affected communities.

According to him, contractors must adopt innovative working schedules, including early morning shifts, to ensure the timely completion of projects.

He stressed that government is committed to improving the road network, and expects contractors to match that commitment with efficiency, discipline, and urgency.

Mr Agbodza added that timely delivery of road projects remains a top priority for government, as good roads are critical to economic activity, trade, and the safety of road users.
