The minister for roads and highways, Governs Kwame Agbodza, has disclosed that work on the stalled Suame Interchange Project in Kumasi will resume next week.
According to the minister, this has become possible following the clearance of outstanding payments owed to contractors.
He announced this through a social media post on Wednesday, April 1, 2026.
He stated that the government had settled debts linked to certified works that had remained unpaid since 2024, a development that had contributed to delays on the project.
He noted that contractors are expected to fully mobilise to site in the coming days to continue construction works aimed at completing the critical road infrastructure.
Mr Governs Kwame Agbodza expressed appreciation to the public for their patience while assuring them that the government remains committed to delivering improved road infrastructure and enhancing mobility within the Ashanti regional capital.
The project is now a three-tier interchange, downscaled from the original four-tier plan to avoid extensive demolitions and save approximately GH¢100 million in additional costs.
The government has allocated an additional GH¢3 billion to ensure the completion of the revised three-tier project and the surrounding outer ring road.
