Governs Kwame Agbodza, Minister for Roads and Highways, has announced that construction on the stalled Suame Interchange will resume next week following the settlement of outstanding payments owed to contractors.
In a social media post on Wednesday, April 1, the Minister disclosed that government had cleared debts tied to certified works that had remained unpaid since 2024—an issue that significantly contributed to delays on the project.
He indicated that contractors are expected to fully mobilise to site in the coming days to restart construction activities aimed at completing the critical infrastructure.
The Suame Interchange Project, a key traffic intervention in Kumasi, has experienced several setbacks in recent months, sparking concerns among residents and road users over worsening congestion and its impact on economic activity.
Agbodza expressed gratitude to the public for their patience during the delay and reaffirmed government’s commitment to improving road infrastructure and enhancing mobility within the Ashanti regional capital.
