During a recent inspection tour of the project, Mr. Francis Asenso-Boakye, the Minister of Roads and Highways, expressed his satisfaction with the progress of the work.

This project is part of the government's efforts to address transportation challenges in densely populated communities such as Krowor and Ledzokuku.
