President John Mahama is expected to tour several ongoing road projects in the Greater Accra Region today as part of his Big Push agenda, an initiative he believes will transform Ghana\u2019s road network within two years.<\/p>\n

The President\u2019s planned inspection follows a series of project launches across the country. Over the past three months, he has cut sod for major road works in the Greater Accra, Volta and Upper West Regions, all under the Big Push programme aimed at accelerating infrastructure development.<\/p>\n

President Mahama has repeatedly stated that the scale and structure of the plan will deliver major improvements quickly. He has said he is confident that \u201cGhana will, in the next two years, have the best roads in West Africa\u201d thanks to the initiative.<\/p>\n

Explaining how the projects have been designed to ensure fast delivery, the President said the contracts were structured to avoid long delays. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe Big Push projects have been allocated in such a way that no contractor will take 24 months to complete. Because we haven\u2019t given any contractor too long a stretch that will take him too much time. We\u2019ve broken it up into pieces so that every contractor can work quickly, and then they join their portions together.\u201d<\/p>\n
