NKWANTA- OTI DAMANKO ROAD
After successful negotiations by the government, China Jiangi Corporation has returned to site to complete the 50.3km Nkwanta-Oti Damanko stretch of the Eastern Corridor Road within 12 months.
The project, which was initially awarded in 2011 to China Jiangi Corporation had stalled due to non-payment to the contractor.
Earlier on Monday, Hon Kwame Agbodza, the Roads minister inspected the project and reiterated government’s commitment to completing strategic road projects.
He further assured the contractors that their payment will be prioritized.
According to Hon. Agbodza, when completed, Nkwanta-Oti-Damanko road will facilitate economic growth through improved access to markets, reduce travel time and improve road safety as well as boost agricultural production and trade.
