Workers have returned to fix the broken Tema-Aflao highway after months of delays. Construction started again on April 7 when Ghana's government gave fresh money to BHM International Construction. The 17-kilometer stretch between Tema Roundabout and Central University at Miotso sat damaged for over a year. Drivers faced terrible traffic, bad roads, and many crashes during that time.
Heavy equipment has returned to the site, bringing new hope for a road connecting Ghana with Togo. Daily travelers feel relief after dealing with potholes and long waits for months. A minibus driver called the past situation "a nightmare" but feels hopeful seeing progress happening again. Shop owners near the construction site had to move but received payment from officials. Most locals want the work to continue without stopping again.
The road matters greatly for business across West Africa. People living nearby told reporter Rebecca Lartey they expect authorities to finish the job properly this time. Everyone watches as machines hum and workers build what locals have waited for through frustrating times. The sight of construction crews means progress has finally returned to this important highway.
