The 19.5-kilometre Accra–Tema Motorway Project is about 50% complete, with the contractor assuring that the project will be delivered within the agreed timeline.
To date, the contractor, MARIPOMA ENTERPRISE LIMITED, has constructed retaining walls, bridge abutments, box and bridge culverts, U-drains, and footbridges. Sub-base construction, earthworks, and maintenance of the existing road are also ongoing.
These updates were disclosed yesterday by the Project Engineer, Ing. Kwabena Bempong, when the Roads and Highways Minister, Kwame Governs Agbodza, inspected the project.
Hon. Agbodza urged the contractor to intensify work by operating day and night to ensure that the project is completed on schedule.
The Minister commended the contractor for the progress made since his last visit, noting that activity on site had increased.
“We are hopeful that we can still complete this project on schedule because the motoring public cannot understand why they have to endure these inconveniences for such a long period. Please, endeavour to ensure that we meet the target,” he said.
