The rehabilitation of the Atimpoku–Asikuma Junction Road Lots 1 and 2 is progressing ahead of schedule, with the two projects recording 67.50 per cent and 41 per cent completion respectively.
The projects, which commenced in December 2025, are scheduled for completion in December 2027.
The Minister for Roads and Highways, Kwame Agbodza, inspected the ongoing works during a working tour of the Eastern Corridor, covering the Upper East, Upper West, Savannah, Volta, Oti and Eastern Regions.
During the inspection, the Minister commended the contractors, Ussuya GH Limited and Dwawill Limited, for their professionalism and the quality of work delivered so far.
“President Mahama is beginning to see the results of the investment in the Big Push Programme and our intention is to make sure that he succeeds,” he said.
Mr Agbodza also urged the contractors to improve sections of the road that are in poor condition to make them more motorable ahead of the Christmas festivities.
The ongoing activities on the two road lots include the construction of drainage systems, road widening, sub-base and base formation, as well as filling to formation level.
The projects are expected to improve road conditions along the Atimpoku–Asikuma Junction stretch and enhance mobility for road users when completed.
