The government is set to construct a 3.6km bridge over the River Afram in the Eastern Region, along with approximately 100km of road network.

This initiative, part of President Mahama’s “Big Push” infrastructure plan, aims to boost agricultural productivity, stimulate economic growth, and reduce poverty.

Some of the roads being considered included Mpraeso – Obomeng – Nkawkaw, Abooso – Mpaem, Mpaem – Kwahu – Adawso and Feyiase – Kwahu Tafo. The rest are, Ekye Amanfrom – Takoratwene, Takoratwene – Dome, Takoratwene – Donkorkrom and Donkorkrom – New Kyeiase.

Earlier today, the Minister for Roads and Highways, Hon. Kwame Agbodza, led a team of engineers to assess the proposed location of the bridge and some critical roads.

Speaking to the media at Donkorkrom after the assessment tour, Hon Agbodza assured the people that President Mahama is “committed to opening up the Afram Plains once and for all.”

“The bridge when completed will connect Eastern, Ashanti and OTI regions in a very strategic way. It will open up the place for big time agriculture and investment in agro-processing,” he emphasized.

The project is expected to enhance economic development, foster regional integration, generate income through agriculture and other sectors.
