accra - kumasi road

The quick read

What's driving the attention

There is ongoing public and official interest in the development and challenges of the Accra-Kumasi road infrastructure project in Ghana.

The Accra-Kumasi road remains a major focus of Ghanaian infrastructure development, with plans for its dualisation expected to complete by 2027 despite challenges including galamsey (illegal mining) impeding construction in some areas. Recent works involve temporary closures to accommodate GRIDCo tower relocation, and authorities have committed to continue ongoing construction even as new expressway plans emerge.
