Unauthorized Buildings Along Peduase-Aburi Stretch To Be Demolished - Gov’t

In the coming weeks, unauthorized property owners along the Peduase-Aburi stretch will have their houses demolished – the Ministry of Roads and Highway Authority has warned.

This exercise is part of measures being taken by the sector to curtail the incidence of rocks falling from the top of the mountains onto the Peduase-Ayi-Mensah Aburi highway.

The sector Minster, Kwasi Amoako Atta in a statement sighted by Peacefmonline.com explained that - “the action would save the lives of motorists and pedestrians who use the major highway connecting the Greater Accra region to the Eastern region.”

Late last year, some parts of the carriageway from Peduase Lodge to Ayi Mensah on the Aburi road was closed down due to vehicular traffic following a landslide incident which got rocks from the mountains falling onto the roads, preventing road users from using that stretch.
