Member of Parliament for Adansi Asokwa, Godwin Animli Dorgbadzi Dorani, together with the District Chief Executive, Albert Dakura, and other stakeholders, has inspected ongoing works under the District Road Improvement Programme (DRIP) aimed at rehabilitating feeder roads across communities in the district.
The inspection, carried out in parts of the rural areas within the Adansi Asokwa District, was to assess progress on road reshaping efforts and engage field operators on the status of work.
Speaking to Adom News, the MP said his immediate contribution to improving road conditions in the district is to support DRIP operations with fuel, ensuring that machinery continues to reshape roads and make them motorable for residents.
He explained that the intervention is a temporary measure to ease movement and boost economic activity while awaiting permanent construction support from the central government.
The DCE, Albert Dakura, noted that poor road conditions have for years affected farmers and residents, making travel both difficult and costly.
He added that transporting sick patients and pregnant women has been particularly challenging, with motorbikes often serving as the only means of transport due to the poor state of the roads.
According to him, the ongoing reshaping works have brought significant relief by restoring access to previously cut-off communities.
The district DRIP Coordinator, Majead Governor, confirmed that more than 120 kilometres of roads have been reshaped so far.
He said 40 major road sections, which were previously in deplorable condition, have been rehabilitated, with about three remaining and expected to be completed soon.
