Road Tolls: Cars to be linked to owners’ Ghana card – Mahama

President John Dramani Mahama has confirmed that road tolls will soon be reintroduced in Ghana, but with a major digital overhaul aimed at increasing transparency, efficiency, and convenience.

The reintroduction, announced earlier by the Government of Ghana, is progressing steadily with preparations underway to deploy a modern, technology-driven tolling system.

According to a report by Graphic Online, the new toll system will replace the traditional toll booths with an automated, digital platform. The number of tolling points is expected to increase to 65 nationwide—up from the previous 39 that were in operation before the tolls were suspended by the previous administration.

The Ministry of Roads and Highways, spearheading the initiative, has officially invited Ghanaian-owned private sector companies to submit tenders for pre-qualification in the areas of design, financing, construction, operation, and maintenance of the new toll system.

This process is being conducted in accordance with the Public Private Partnership Act, 2022 (Act 1039).

He further explained that the pre-qualification phase would assess the technical, financial, and legal capacities of prospective bidders.

The deadline for bid submissions is June 19, 2025.

Speaking at the 9th Ghana CEO Summit in Accra on May 26, President Mahama provided more insight into the digitised tolling system, highlighting its integration with the Ghana Card.

He emphasised that this innovation would eliminate long queues and human interference, while boosting revenue collection for national development.

Mahama said, “We said in the budget that we are going to reintroduce road tolls and so they have been talking about how the modality should be about and all that. But the good thing is, every car is linked to the owner’s Ghana card and so we don’t to have the old toll gates and those cards that you’ll stand and all that. We’ll go straight digitalised. If it’s one cedi, if you cross the East Legon gate, governor and Finance Minister will all be happy, we just take a picture of the car and we’ll take the bill to your mobile money or bank account and just pay.”
