The African Development Bank is providing $81.67 million to finance the Eastern Corridor Road Development Programme Phase 1 in Ghana.
The 695km corridor project is meant to link Accra with the northern hinterland by avoiding the long known central corridor, which would also reduce the distance to about 200km.
Phase 1 of the project covers the construction of roads and community development along Dufor Adidome-Asikuma Junction (39.2km), Asutuare-Aveyime (23.9km) and the construction of two interchanges at Dufor Adidome and Asikuma Junction.
