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.

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.
