Audio By Carbonatix

The Minister for Roads and Highways, Governs Kwame Agbodza, has announced that work on the stalled Suame Interchange Project in Kumasi will resume next week following the clearance of outstanding payments owed to contractors.

In a social media post on Wednesday, April 1, the Minister said government had settled debts linked to certified works that had remained unpaid since 2024, a development that had contributed to delays on the project.

According to him, contractors are expected to fully mobilise to site in the coming days to continue construction works aimed at completing the critical road infrastructure.

The Suame Interchange Project, which serves as a major traffic solution in Kumasi, has faced setbacks in recent months, raising concerns among residents and road users over prolonged congestion and economic disruptions.

The Minister expressed appreciation to the public for their patience, assuring that government remains committed to delivering improved road infrastructure and enhancing mobility within the Ashanti regional capital.
