Work on a 20-million-dollar modern car park for the Kaneshie Market Complex (KMC) would soon begin, its Managing Director, Mr Edmund Kofi Duffour Addae told newsmen in Accra on Friday.
He said due to the high level of mutual co-operation and understanding between management and tenants of the market, when the park was ready, it would become necessary to charge users of the park a little bit higher than the rates that pertain in some of the metropolis.
The Managing Director said the car parks at the market normally developed potholes whenever it rained, and that efforts were being made to put up temporal structures for the drivers.
He expressed concern about the nefarious activities of pickpockets, who snatch bags and mobile phones on the footbridges and noted that that was having negative effect on the patronage and image of KMC.
Mr Addae, therefore, appealed to the police to clamp down on the activities of the thieves.
He urged Ghanaians to consider protecting their health, by patronizing goods that were being sold in the stalls inside the market place, rather than buying them from traders along the pavements, whose wares were placed in unhygienic conditions.
Mr Addae, therefore, urged traders, who sell items on the pavements to acquire stalls in order to help protect the health of prospective buyers by selling to them hygienic and healthy items.
He asked the Accra Metropolitan Authority and the Department of Urban Roads to rehabilitate the road behind the Kaneshie Police Station, which he indicated was in a very terrible situation to facilitate the movement of vehicles.
