"I am very optimistic the reshaping of this road which was in a deplorable nature, will reduce the frustration people go through on daily basis and will bring relief to the people especially drivers," he said. 

Hon. Owuh further tasked the contractor working on the stretch to finish ahead of schedule. 

Speaking to the media, Hon. Mozart Kweku Owuh assured residents that, the MP is committed to fixing other deplorable roads to improve the livelihoods of the people in the constituency. 

Engineers From the Ghana Highway Authority applauded the Member of Parliament and the municipal assembly for taking such initiative.
