Houses in and around Kasoa in the Central Region are being demolished to pave way for the construction of a new road on the Winneba road.
The affected houses belong to encroachers, who have built along the stretch of the land earmarked for the project.
District Chief Executive for Gomoa East, Benjamin Kojo Otoo who supervised the exercise told Adom News the project is being funded by the government and is expected to ease the constant traffic congestion in the Kasoa township.
“The demolition exercise will make way for the expansion works to commence on the Kasoa Winneba highway to ease traffic and accidents on the main highway which connects the Central region to Western region.
“When completed, it will hugely support the economy and the region as a whole and so it is important that the affected understands when the construction finally begins” he said.
