The exercise, according to the sector Minister, Mr Kwasi Amoako-Atta is expected to be completed before April 2018.

Speaking on an Accra-based radio station, Citi FM on Thursday, Mr Amoako-Atta said the move is to pave way for the expansion of the Motorway.

He explained that, the highway, will be expanded from the current four lanes to six lanes over a 30-month period.

“We are going to expand the motorway from the current 4 lanes to 6 lanes. It will take about 30 months because it will be under construction this year. We need to create the right of way and clear everybody for the contractor to carry out this work. [This will be] up to the end of March. Announcements will come [to that effect]. We are going to clear the squatters on both sides,” Kwasi Amoako-Atta said.
