The Tamale Metropolitan Assembly (TAMA) has drawn up an ambitious plan to rehabilitate infrastructural facilities in the metropolis. When completed, the plan would help improve on the socio-economic lives of residents; as well as uplift the status of the area to befit it as a metropolis. The plan will also improve sectors such as tourism and investment drive, electrification, water and sanitation, education, road, trade and commerce. The development of a fully fledged website, where the world can access and appreciate Tamale better through the internet, is a top priority for the assembly. The website would be constantly updated in order to meet the expectations of prospective investors and tourists. Nine peri-urban communities in the metropolis, namely; Wamale, Gbashe, Zuo, Parshe, Kanville, Lahagu, Taha, Dungu and Zujung are to be provided with pipe-borne water. Additionally, 40 other communities in the sprawling city are also to be provided with rain water harvesting tanks and toilet facilities. New Energy, a non-governmental is supporting the TAMA in that direction.
