President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo is set to commission the newly constructed Flower Pot Interchange in Accra on 19 November 2024, marking the completion of the infrastructure project aimed at easing traffic flow between key parts of the city. 

The announcement was made by Eugene Arhin, Director of Communications at the Presidency, through a Facebook post confirming the event.

He posted: "“Flower Pot” Interchange to be commissioned by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo on 19th November".

The scope of work features several key additions, including ramps and slip roads to facilitate smoother travel. The project provides a ramp from Shiashie onto the viaduct towards Airport Hills, another from the viaduct onto the motorway heading towards Tema, and a slip road from the motorway to the Boundary Road Roundabout. It also includes a new road passing through the old tunnel at East Legon and a fresh exit to Cantonments from the Giffard Road Interchange.

The interchange is anticipated to improve traffic flow across these high-density areas, reducing congestion and enhancing travel times for commuters.
