Work on the clearing of the right-of-way along the Suame–Asonomaso Nkwanta corridor is expected to begin in November to pave the way for a road expansion project, the Ashanti Regional Minister, Dr Frank Amoakohene has announced.
The clearance exercise will be a key step towards making the required space available for the planned expansion. The exercise is to prepare the stretch for construction works aimed at improving traffic flow and reducing the persistent congestion experienced by commuters travelling along the corridor.
Dr Amoakohene made the disclosure on his Facebook page last week indicating that engagements would be held to facilitate the removal of obstacles along the route before the expansion works begin.
“Suame through to Asonomaso Nkwanta. We shall engage to clear the right of way to commence the road expansion project on that corridor in November,” he said.
The proposed project is expected to address traffic challenges along the busy route, where motorists and other road users frequently experience delays during their daily journeys.
Details regarding the project’s scope, construction timeline, funding, and the specific arrangements for affected occupants were, however, not provided by the Minister’s announcement.
The planned intervention forms part of efforts to improve road infrastructure and ease the transport difficulties confronting commuters in the Ashanti Region.
