Bolgatanga Road Project

The Project is the upgrade of the Bolgatanga-Bawku-Pulmakom Road in the northern corridor of Ghana. The rehabilitation of the road is designed to help increase road safety, trade and stimulate economic and social development, and to further integrate the Upper East and the Northern regions of Ghana, as well as to potentially benefit the neighbouring countries.

The road is approximately 109km long, stretching from Bolgatanga through Bawku to Pulmakom. The Project will include:

  • Rehabilitation of existing road;
  • Construction of an additional bypass at Bawku;
  • Construction of three new bridges parallel to the existing bridges nearby the towns of Bolgatanga, Tilli and Zebilla.

The Project is contained within an existing Right-of-Way, with limited requirement for new land acquisition.

Integrated Waste Management

At QGMI, we plan to adopt an integrated waste management approach, by assessing the various waste streams and adopting an approach of waste management. Our organic wastes are segregated, and a designed composter treats them. The result of the organic waste management can be applied to our reforestation projects.

Accugrade GPS Control System

We use a GPS technology to increase our productivity in earthmoving and grading processes. This Control System allows operators to grade more precisely and faster, which translates into higher productivity, lower operating costs, and a well-done work.

SAE (Electronic Monitoring System)

The Electronic Monitorig System was developed internally by the IT team, with the aim of monitoring the development of activities and working hours of workers and teams in real time, reducing access time to performance indicators for strategic decision making. The system, which is available in Portuguese, English, and Spanish, works via smartphone by reading QR Codes affixed to equipment and on workers‘ credentials. It works even where there is no internet available, as data can be stored in the phone’s memory and transferred when there is a Wi-Fi or 4G network signal. It improves cost management, productivity control and contributes to environmental sustainability.
