The Minister of Roads and Highways, Kwame Governs Agbodza, has reiterated the Government’s commitment to ensuring the successful implementation of the Abidjan-Lagos Corridor Highway Development Project.
The 1,028km Highway interconnects five West African Countries and crosses economic centers of Accra, Lome, Cotonou, Abidjan, and Lagos.
The Minister explained that the project, when completed, would facilitate the free movement of goods and services, which would benefit the socio-economic development of the sub-region.
Mr. Agbodza made these remarks at the launch of the National Stakeholders and Community Engagement Campaign of Project Affected Communities in Ghana in Accra on Tuesday, 13th May, 2025.
The engagement was designed to adequately sensitize the about 32 communities to be affected by the project.
Ghana’s section of the highway is about 520km- more than half of the entire corridor. It’s expected that this section will be constructed on greenfield along major cities and towns such as Accra, Apimanim, Takoradi, Cape Coast, Saltpond, and Winneba, The rest are Tema, Kasseh, Akatsi, and Akanu.
