President Akufo-Addo will later (today) Friday(July 9, 2021) commission the four-tier Pokuase Interchange in Accra.
The interchange described as the biggest in West Africa is expected to remove the traffic bottleneck at the Pokuase Junction by easing the streams of traffic that conflict on the Awoshie-Pokuase and Accra-Kumasi roads.
The project, which is estimated to cost $70 million, began on July 3, 2018, after the sod had been cut by the then Senior Minister, Mr Yaw Osafo Maafo, on behalf of the
President,Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.
Project variations
The project was originally scheduled to be completed in October last year and later changed to March this year.
That was as a result of the inclusion of a fourth tier which was not part of the initial plan.
