The construction of the overpass at Adjiringanor in Accra has been suspended, leading to significant traffic congestion for motorists, especially near the Shell Filling Station, commonly known as Asamoah Gyan.
Potholes at the underpass are adding to the inconvenience.
The Minister of Roads, Governs Kwame Agbodza, last week in an interview on Accra-based Joy FM, revealed that the project is at a halt due to a dispute over a US$2 million compensation claim by two landowners, whose properties have to be demolished either partially by touching a fence wall or completely.
He indicated that with one of the buildings, an uncompleted one, there was nothing on the land when the road project started, but the developer quickly put up the project and is now demanding the compensation.
