President John Dramani Mahama will at 5pm today, November 14 cut the tape to officially open to traffic the Kwame Nkrumah Circle interchange project.<\/p>\n

The project funded with a loan from the Brazilian government has been touted as one of the major achievements of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC).<\/p>\n

The water fountain and the statue of Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah have also been redesigned.<\/p>\n

A statement issued from the Ministry of Roads and Highways said the opening was necessary to reduce congestion and allow traffic to flow freely at the Interchange and its environs.<\/p>\n

It cautioned motorists to park only at authorised spaces and urged pedestrians to use designated walk ways.<\/p>\n

The statement asked the drivers of big trucks to, as a matter of critical importance, observe the height restrictions when using the Interchange, and also tasked traders to transact businesses at authorised locations.<\/p>\n
