Minister of Roads and Highways, Kwasi Amoako Atta, has presented to Parliament what he said is proof of unprecedented kilometres of roads that the Akufo-Addo government has constructed since 2017.
According to him, he has compiled all the road interventions that the government has undertaken since assuming the reins of power between 2017-2021 and totalling 4,263.37 kilometres.
Addressing Parliament last Friday, February 18, 2022, the Minister applauded the government for the unprecedented kilometres of roads constructed.
The Road Minister’s presentation follows a directive by Frist Deputy Speaker of Parliament, Joseph Osei Owusu, for the Ministry to furnish the house with accurate data on the total number of roads constructed by the government.
In compliance with that directive, Mr. Amoako Atta said, “Mr Speaker I have compiled all the roads intervention between 2017-2021 and it totals 4263.37KM and Mr Speaker my ministry because they want to offer a prima facie evidence of what we have done, we have broken the roads intervention into regions and it covers all the 16 regions of our country and we have also gone further to itemize all the roads activities that constitute that total number.”
“…over 4000KM of roads has been constructed under the Akufo-Addo led government, he has done marvellously well and his performance in the road sector is unprecedented since independence in 1957 for our country,” he stated.
