Government has released an amount of GHC150 million for fixing potholes across the country, an official statement has said.
The amount is part of the first quarter releases from the Ministry of Finance to the Ministry of Roads and Highways.
A statement issued by the Ministry of Roads and Highways on Friday, said it is committed to addressing all road network challenges nationwide.
“The intervention is to enable the Ghana Highways Authority and the Department of Urban Roads to take advantage of the dry season to undertake routine pothole patching activities on some major roads, which deteriorated in 2023 due to heavy rains.
“The Ministry is hopeful that this timely intervention will result in smoother road surfaces, help reduce the risk of accidents and prolong the lifespan of our road infrastructure,” the statement said.
