The project, however, is in two phases, thus work will begin immediately on Sofo Kyere and Kyiribaa roads and the others which make up phase one.
In February this year, Dr Nuama presented the company to Daasebre to commence construction of the Berekum inner roads, but was not able to commence due the Covid 19 pandemic restrictions. Dr Kwabena Twum Nuamah noted that the company is set to commence work on Monday 16th November 2020.
The roads to be constructed will be bitumen, including the construction of gutters along the sides of the roads. He emphasized that this construction is different from the SinoHydro road construction which the Vice President, Dr Alhaji Mamudu Bawumia cut sod some months ago. All these projects are coming to put a facelift of Berekum township roads, he added.
He finally asked Nananom for their support and blessing to make all these projects a reality.
