Kennedy Osei Nyarko, a member of Ghana's Parliament, has highlighted the urgent need for sustainable solutions to address the country's significant road funding gap, which stands at 70%. During a recent forum organized by the Ghana Chamber of Commerce and Industry, he emphasized that inadequate funding has led to deteriorating road conditions, impacting transportation and economic growth. Nyarko proposed innovative financing mechanisms such as public-private partnerships (PPPs) and increased government investment in infrastructure to bridge this gap.

By leveraging technology and engaging local communities in road management, Nyarko believes that Ghana can improve its road networks effectively. He called on stakeholders to collaborate in developing comprehensive strategies that not only address immediate funding needs but also promote efficient resource allocation for future infrastructure projects. This approach aims to enhance connectivity across the nation while fostering economic development through improved transportation systems.
