Parliament on Tuesday, March 25, approved GH¢3.2 billion allocation for the Ministry of Roads and Highways for the year 2025.
The funding is expected to drive major infrastructure projects and improvements in the country’s road network.
According to reports, the Ghana Highway Authority, under the Ministry, plans to recruit 137 new staff members to address a shortfall created by the establishment of new regions and regional offices.
The move is part of the Ministry’s decentralisation efforts to enhance operations.
The Ministry has outlined ambitious plans to dualize and improve safety on major trunk roads across the country.
Additionally, the ongoing construction of four by-passes on the Accra-Kumasi Highway at Osino, Anyinam, Enyiresi, and Konongo is expected to continue, further enhancing the country’s transportation infrastructure.
The 2025 Budget Statement and Economic Policy of the government was presented to Parliament by Dr. Caasiel Ato Forson, the Minister of Finance on Tuesday, March 11 on the theme: “Resetting Ghana for the Economy We Want.”
The comment on the budget ended on Tuesday March 25 2025 following the Majority and Minority Leader’s comments.
