Background

After President Akufo-Addo cut sod in October 2022, the project is yet to commence.

The 4-tier interchange project, which was to be constructed in two phases within 30 months, includes five overpasses and the widening of the Kumasi-Offinso Road.

Last week, some media personalities in Kumasi some residents to clear overgrown weeds at the roundabout which is partially cordoned off.

During a press conference organised to mark the region's current NPP leadership’s first-year anniversary, Chairman Wontumi explained the project will be a major factor if the party is to retain power in the 2024 election.
