“Motorist travelling to Somanya and beyond are to use the Adukrom-Aseseeso-Trom Junction road whilst the District collaborates with Feeder Roads and National Road Safety Commission improve the safety of the road.”
Motorists use the Apirede-Somanya road due to the poor nature of the Koforidua-Nkurakan road and construction works on the Aseseeso-Adukrom road.
In a space of weeks, several lives have been lost due to accident, the recent being the one involving staff and students of the Winneba College of Education – who were on an educational tour – and some mourners who were en route to Aflao in the Volta Region.
