President Mahama committed to opening up Afram Plains once and for all – Roads Minister Kwame Agbodza

The government is set to construct a 3.6-kilometre bridge over the River Afram in the Eastern Region, alongside the development of approximately 100 kilometres of road network.

This initiative, part of President Mahama’s “Big Push” infrastructure agenda, aims to boost agricultural productivity, stimulate economic growth, and alleviate poverty in the region.

Among the roads under consideration are the Mpraeso–Obomeng–Nkawkaw, Abooso–Mpaem, Mpaem–Kwahu–Adawso, and Feyiase–Kwahu Tafo routes. Others include Ekye Amanfrom–Takoratwene, Takoratwene–Dome, Takoratwene–Donkorkrom, and Donkorkrom–New Kyeiase.

Earlier today, the Minister for Roads and Highways, Kwame Agbodza, led a team of engineers to inspect the proposed site of the bridge and assess several key road corridors.

Speaking to the media in Donkorkrom following the assessment tour, Agbodza assured residents that President Mahama is “committed to opening up the Afram Plains once and for all.”

“The bridge, when completed, will strategically connect the Eastern, Ashanti and Oti Regions. It will open up the area for large-scale agriculture and attract investment in agro-processing,” he emphasised.

The project is expected to enhance economic development, foster regional integration, and generate income through agriculture and other productive sectors.
