The Minister for Roads and Highways, Kwame Governs Agbodza, has announced that government has settled $29.5 million owed to contractors working on the Suame Interchange Project.
He made the disclosure on Tuesday, April 28, during an inspection tour of the project site, where he reaffirmed government’s commitment to completing all inherited road infrastructure projects across the country.
According to him, an additional GH₵3 billion has also been approved to accelerate construction works and enhance the overall quality of the interchange.
“We are still back on schedule to complete the interchange itself. We are not taking a cedi out of the interchange project; we are rather adding GH₵3 billion to enhance it,” Mr Agbodza said.
He expressed confidence that the project remains on track, adding that timelines for completion are still intact.
“We intend to complete this project by the end of 2028, but the section on which we are standing now will be completed by the end of this year,” he stated.
