Tema Motorway expansion: Temporary diversion routes created

Motorists and pedestrians plying the Tema Motorway are being advised to heed to diversion signs as the Second Phase (Akosombo and Harbour approach roads) of construction works on the improvement of the Tema Motorway Roundabout begins on Sunday April 30, 2017.

An announcement jointly issued by the Ghana Highway Authority (GHA), the Ministry of Roads and Highways (MRH), the Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority (GPHA) and the Meridian Port Services (MPS), said this phase of the construction works is expected to last for three months and would cause motorists and the general public to use temporary diversion routes to the motorway roundabout.

Any inconvenience caused is deeply regretted.
