Project justification

The project aims to relieve traffic congestion by improving the existing roundabout and also building two flyovers. In short, quality of life for drivers, pedestrians and citizens.

We designed the project in two integrated ‘levels’. Both are complementary and together they will combat the accumulation of vehicles at the intersection of two of downtown Accra’s main arteries. In addition, it will improve driver and pedestrian safety, and promote the local economy and the exchange of goods and services.

Phase 1: Construction of an east-west flyover. Project completed.

Phase 2: Construction of a north-south flyover; upgrading of the existing Obetsebi Lamptey roundabout to ground level; and implementation of adjacent drainage works. Project under construction. 

Scope of Works

Phase 1

  • 390 m east-west viaduct with two lanes in each direction. In addition, ancillary works including access ramps and storm drainage improvement measures.

Phase 2

  • 400 m long, 18.8 m wide north-south viaduct with two lanes in each direction.
  • Widening of Ring Road West – Obetsebi Lamptey.
  • Widening of Ring Road West and Winneba Road.
  • Adequate provision of pedestrian crossings and footbridges.
  • Improvement of drainage system between Nii Teiko Din Road and Dr. Busia Road.
  • Storm drainage improvement measures at Obetsebi Lamptey roundabout.
  • Improved pedestrian movement at ground level, including commercial activity.
  • Provision of street lighting for night-time safety.
  • Landscaping.
Sustainability

We developed the project in accordance with the IFC’s Environmental and Social Performance Standards. This includes a Resettlement Action Plan and ongoing contact with traders with businesses in the area. 

We also expect to reduce noise levels and exhaust emissions by improving traffic flow, reduce flooding in the area during the rainy season through drainage and sanitation works, and increase safety, particularly at night, through the installation of lighting.

Third Party Risk Management

Our Third-Party Risk Management System is designed to act preventively in identifying third parties and managing associated risks. It is an electronic, automated, and parameterised system integrated into our payment platform, enabling almost instantaneous screening of the reputational and financial aspects of third parties at the contracting stage. In this way, we support the procurement area in identifying the best suppliers in the market—those who share QGMI’s commitment to quality and social responsibility—while reducing our exposure to third-party risk. Our decentralised due diligence process allows the organisation to operate with confidence in the markets where it is present. 

Waste Management

We manage waste in an integrated manner by separating it, processing it through composting, and evaluating its flows. The compost produced is reused in reforestation projects.

GPS Control System

This control system enables operators to level and move earth with greater precision and speed, resulting in increased productivity, lower operating costs, and high-quality results.

SAE (Electronic Monitoring System)

Developed by our IT team, the SAE monitors the activities and working hours of both personnel and equipment in real time, reducing the time required to access performance indicators. It includes an application that reads QR codes assigned to equipment and staff and works even when no network is available. Benefits include improved cost management, enhanced productivity control, and a positive contribution to environmental sustainability.
