NDC flags fly high ahead of Circle Flyovers inauguration
The two flyovers at the newly built Nkrumah Circle, which are due for official opening today have been decorated with flags of the ruling NDC ahead of opening.
A development that has irked passersby, it is coming hours before Ghana’s President John Mahama officially open the routes to motorists.
The €74.88million project Is being jointly financed by the Brazilian and Ghanaian governments.
The flyovers link the central business district of Accra and vice-versa to the Kwame Nkrumah Circle, a key intersection in the major road network in the national capital.
It carries about 84,000 vehicles a day and constitutes a key bottleneck in the major road network that links the suburban areas of Accra to the central business district.
The three-tier interchange which started in 2013 when completed this year (2015) will transform the Kwame Nkrumah Circle into a pedestrian and motorist friendly zone with linkages to various suburbs in Accra.
