The Ministry of Roads and Highways says the Suame Interchange project in the Ashanti Region is expected to be completed by the end of 2026.
Spokesperson for the Ministry, Kojo Danquah, says one side of the interchange has been completed and is now open to motorists.
Speaking on GhanAkoma hosted by Sir John on November 9, he said: “The Ministry has completed one side of the Suame Interchange, which is now open to motorists. The entire project is expected to be completed by the end of 2026.”
On concerns over government indebtedness to road contractors, Mr Danquah insisted that the government does not owe any contractor who has duly submitted their payment certificates.
“Government does not owe any road contractor who has duly raised its certificates,” he stated.
He explained that contractors who claim to be owed may not have submitted their certificates to the Roads and Highways Minister’s office.
According to him, the Minister has assured contractors that payment will be made within 24 hours of submitting their certificates.
