President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo on Monday, 21 October 2019 cut sod for the construction of the $135-million Obetsebi-Lamptey Interchange.

The Phase I of the project will consist of the construction of the east-west flyover and other related works, while the Phase II will involve the construction of the third-tier flyover on the Ring Road West.

The Interchange is expected to improve mobility on the western parts of the Ring Road and also help improve travel time to Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, and improve access to the Abossey Okai spare parts area and to businesses along the Graphic Road and the Kaneshie-Mallam Highway.
