Wa-Bolgatanga Road Corridor to be Completed Under Mahama’s Big Push Initiative- Roads and Highways Minister

The Minister for Roads and Highways,  Kwame Agbodza, has assured the Chief and people of Sissala that government is committed to completing the Wa-Tumu-Bolgatanga road corridor under the ‘Big Push’ Initiative.

“It’s not just a promise; it’s a social contract. President Mahama will ensure the completion of this road corridor before the end of his tenure,” the minister stated.

“Despite all other road projects, President Mahama has selected some key projects which he has classified as the’Mahama Infrastructure Plan’ and this corridor is part of it. This represents his firm social contract with the people of Sissala,” he reiterated.

Mr. Agbodza provided this assurance earlier today while leading a team of engineers to inspect the corridor as part of his working tour of the northern sector of the country.

According to him, “We are conducting a confirmation inspection tour of all these roads before we commence work on them by June.”

Mr.Agbodza encouraged contractors already working on the corridor to expedite their efforts to ensure the road is completed within two years.

“Those contractors who are still on site, keep pushing. You will be the first to be considered for more jobs. We acknowledge that we owe you, and it’s not easy. But keep the faith and continue working as much as you can. We will settle those debts and provide you with more jobs,” he emphasized.
