The Deputy Minister for Roads and Highways, Mr. Stephen Pambiin Jalulah, has, on behalf of the Minister of Roads, cut the sod for the reconstruction of the Ayanfuri-Kwamprakrom road project.
The project, which is expected to address the deplorable state of the road network in the area, would also see the upgrading of the Asaman-Nyinawusu feeder road.
The Ayanfuri road connects the inter-regional and national integration, including the Central, Western North, Ashanti and Ahafo regions.
The Deputy Minister, at the sod cutting ceremony last Monday, commended President Akufo-Addo for making the project possible, and that the contractor was ready for the job, and urged the members of the community to give them the needed support.
He said the contractor had started with the clearing, construction of concrete, earthworks, u-drains and culverts.
The Minister of Transport, Mr. Kwaku Ofori Asiamah, promised the chiefs and people that the project was bound to be completed in good time, as the contractor had already commenced work.
The Central Regional Minister Justina Marigold Assan, gave the assurance that the government was committed to infrastructural development to enhance the socio-economic development of the citizenry, as well as facilitate the free flow and movement of goods, services and access to the market.
The District Chief Executive (DCE) for Upper Denkyira West, Mr. Richmond Koduah, said the project would be completed within two years, and commended the President for delivering on his promise.
He appealed to the chiefs and farmers who would be affected by the construction process, to settle all issues amicably with the contractor.
The DCE pleaded with the constituents to reconsider their position against the government and support it and ensure massive votes for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) at the elections.
