Ghana will soon see, walk and drive on quality roads should the government of Ghana enter into an agreement with Polyroads West-Africa to do more of our roads.
Authorities of the firm are in the country to help provide a lasting solution to the problems on our roads.
This came to light when authorities of the company embarked on a practical work at Oduom roundabout bypass in the in the Ashanti Region for the public to know how good roads could be constructed in the country without using stones, cement and other raw materials needed for road construction.
Roads constructed by Polyroads West-Africa does not develop potholes and is dust free.
The company uses texting polymer materials to improve the quality and prolong the lifespan of road and also to prevent potholes that usually develops on our roads.
The company does not waste a lot of money when constructing roads because they don’t buy construction materials outside the project site. What they have on the project site is the raw materials for construction work.
The Chief Executive Officer of Polyroads West Africa, Mr.Stephen Kofi Amponsah in an interview, noted that the company is now negotiating with the government of Ghana on how Ghana would benefit from quality roads in the country.
He said their work has more than 20 years guarantee and because the soil after modification turns into a rock which prolongs the road’s lifespan.
The CEO further noted that, Ghana roads develop potholes faster because they lack quality and that is why they are in to solve the problem. Though he did not blame any Contractor, he noted that their works do not meet quality standards for road construction.
Polyroads is a specialist company, focusing on the development and manufacturing of Smart Materials for the mining and road construction industry.
Meanwhile, the Upper East Region has no good road it can boast of, apart from the ECOWAS Trunk road that passes through the region.
The Bawku-Bolgatanga-Pulmakum has deteriorated and though some work is being done at some portions of the road, lack of funding has stalled construction work.
