The Minister of Roads and Highways, Kwame Governs Agbodza has assured that the government will be transparent in the award of the contract for the reconstruction of road tolls in Ghana.
The Minister assured the public that the Ministry would keep them informed about the progress of the tolling system’s development and the selection process for the transaction advisor.
In a few days, he said, the advertisement for the selection of the transaction advisor should be out.
He said this in Accra on Tuesday during a courtesy call by the Turkish Ambassador to Ghana, H.E. Hüseyin Güngör.
“We are not settling for anything less than excellence,” he stated, emphasising the importance of innovation and expressing the government’s determination to dispel any doubts regarding the reintroduction of road toll.
He noted that the ministry is currently in the process of obtaining approval from the Public Procurement Authority (PPA) to select a transaction advisor.
“Transparency is a priority, and we welcome all capable organisations to participate in the selection process. We want the best technical and financial proposal that will enable us to operate a highly sustainable tolling system,” he stated.
“In a few days, the advertisement for the selection of the transaction advisor should be out. Together, we will pave the way for a brighter future in road infrastructure,” he added.
