Early Thursday morning, a set of bulldozers were spotted on the Adenta Barrier stretch to Oyibi demolition the structures of the squatters who failed to pack off after the Ghana Highway Authority gave them a deadline to remove their structures.

The squatters were seen packing off their items from shops and loading them into trucks as some were stranded and weeping.

On the 30km Kasoa-Winneba stretch, there will be interchanges/flyovers at Budumburam, Akoti, Sabato, and Winneba Junctions as well as the Adenta-Dodowa road, there will also be interchanges/flyovers at major intersections.

The Kasoa-Budumburam road will be undertaken by NagFairmont Limited while the Adenta-Dodowa will be constructed by Oswal Investments Ltd.

The Minister announced that the roads will be reconstructed into a 2-lane dual carriageway with service lanes, interchanges, and overpasses.
