The affected roads include Adiembra -Sefwi Bekwai road; Sukusuku – Sefwi Bekwai road; Muoho – Kwaaso road; Patabuoso Nkwanta – Chirano road; Asawinso – Nkronua road; Degede – Nsuontam road; Aboabo Junction – Aboabo; Dominibo No 2 – Wenchi; Wenchi – Aboduabo; Hwenampori – Chine; Bethlehem – Sefwi Krom and others; Tanoso – Adupiri; Anhwiaso – Bayerebon No. 1 etc.
Meanwhile some of these roads have been awarded by the Ministry of Roads and Highways to be tiled but the contractors have either not gone to the site or abandoned the site. There is therefore the need for this short term measure.

The work started on the 17th October 2021 and it is expected to be completed on the 30th November 2021 which is 45 days and the total cost for the whole project is ghs 720, 000.00 and the source of funding is Hon. Alfred Obeng-Boateng’s personal income.
