Nana Akufo-Addo has announced 2022 to be another year of road construction.
He said that the government would work on new significant road projects around the nation as well as finish ones that are nearing completion.
“Roads, roads, and more roads. It’s the #YearOfRoads”, Akufo-Addo announced Wednesday, January 5 on his Twitter handle.
One of the tweet’s accompanying artworks reads:
“The government of Ghana will start work on nine new major road projects in parts of the country this year (2022) and complete many others that are at advanced stages of completion.”
The tweet also includes more artwork illustrating what is to be anticipated.
“9 Highways, 7 bridges, and 5 interchanges”
However, the locations and other information of these projects have not been released.
In December 2019, the president declared 2020 to be the Year of the Road. “Next year is the year we will adopt as the year of roads”, he said in a press encounter.
He designated 2021 to be the second year of roads once again in January of last year.
“Our roads are being constructed at a much faster pace than before. And yes, I acknowledge that there are still many more kilometers to construct.
“We defined last year as the year of roads, this year [2021] will be the second year of roads. As we continue in our focus of dealing with the deficit in road infrastructure,” he stated.
Akufo-Addo has announced a third year of road construction.
