A new drainage project has commenced at Dansoman Junction, popularly known as Hansonic, as part of efforts to address the area’s long-standing flooding problem.
Engineers have begun work on the drainage system, which is expected to ease the persistent flooding that has affected residents, pedestrians and motorists in the area for more than a decade.
Speaking in an interview, the Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) for the Ablekuma North Municipality, Musah Kalaamu, said the project is expected to be completed within three months.
“The project is expected to be completed within three months,” he said.
The Dansoman Junction area has also experienced significant traffic congestion, particularly during periods of heavy rainfall, creating difficulties for commuters and other road users.
The completion of the drainage project is therefore expected to provide much-needed relief to residents and motorists while improving movement within the area.
Mr Kalaamu appealed to residents and road users to bear with the temporary inconveniences that may arise during the construction period.
He said the challenges associated with the construction would ultimately give way to a lasting solution to the flooding situation and improve conditions in the area.
