The Minister of Roads and Highways Hon Kwame Governs Agbodza reiterated governments commitment to ensure 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 Abidjan, Accra, Lome, Cotonou and Lagos.
The project he explained when completed would facilitate the free movements of goods and services for the socio economic development of the Sub region.
Hon. Agbodza made these remarks at the launch of the National Stakeholders and Community Engagement Campaign of Project Affected Communities in Ghana yesterday in Accra.
The engagement is expected 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 Apimanim, Takoradi, Cape Coast, Saltpond, Winneba and Accra. The rest are Tema, Kasseh, Akatsi and Akanu.
