Department of Urban Roads - Ghana

*ROAD UPDATE* *NKWANTA- OTI DAMANKO ROAD* After successful negotiations by the government, China Jiangi Corporation has returned to site to complete the 50.3km Nkwanta-Oti Damanko stretch of the Eastern Corridor Road within 12 months. The project, which was initially awarded in 2011 to China Jiangi Corporation had stalled due to non-payment to the contractor. Earlier today, Hon Agbodza inspected the project and reiterated government’s commitment to completing strategic road projects. He further assured the contractors that their payment will be prioritized. According to Hon. Agbodza, when completed, Nkwanta-Oti-Damanko road will facilitate economic growth through improved access to markets, reduce travel time and improve road safety as well as boost agricultural production and trade.

The Department of Urban Roads has embarked on a significant infrastructure project. As previously announced, construction of the Pelican Crossing on the Abeka Lapaz road stretch commenced on March 1, 2025, at 10:00 PM.

The Minister for Roads and Highways Hon. Kwame Governs Agbodza had an engagement with the staff of the Department of Urban Roads.

Congratulations Minister of Roads and Highways - Designate.
