The Minister of Roads and Highways, Kwame Governs Agbodza, has announced that work on the stalled Suame Interchange Project in Kumasi will resume next week following the clearance of outstanding payments owed to contractors.

In a social media post on Wednesday, April 1, 2026, the minister said the government had settled debts linked to certified works that had remained unpaid since 2024, a development that had contributed to delays on the project.

According to him, contractors are expected to fully mobilise to the site in the coming days to continue construction works aimed at completing the critical road infrastructure.
