Mr Kwasi Amoako-Atta, the Ministry of Roads and Highways announced during a recent tour that another tunnel would be constructed to ease the vehicular traffic for motorists on that route.

“Within the next six months, I have directed the team to create a second tunnel so that there will be continuous flow of traffic instead of the current alternating flow that we are experiencing.

Once we have the two systems in place, this traffic that occur will be a thing of the past,” the minister said.
