The Na­tion­al In­fra­struc­ture De­vel­op­ment Com­pa­ny Lim­it­ed (NID­CO) has an­nounced a tem­po­rary traf­fic arrange­ment along the Con­nec­tor Road to the Elmi­na Clarke-Allen High­way, ef­fec­tive to­day. Traf­fic will be re­strict­ed to a sin­gle lane as sta­bil­i­sa­tion works be­gin on a sec­tion of the road­way.

Ac­cord­ing to NID­CO, the lane re­duc­tion is part of ef­forts to ad­dress re­cent slope slip­page in the area. The tem­po­rary mea­sure is in­tend­ed to fa­cil­i­tate slope re­in­force­ment and pre­vent fur­ther de­te­ri­o­ra­tion of the af­fect­ed sec­tion. Per­ma­nent slope restora­tion and grad­ing are al­so sched­uled to take place.

The re­me­di­a­tion works are ex­pect­ed to last for ap­prox­i­mate­ly three weeks.

NID­CO stat­ed that the road­way re­mains open and safe for pub­lic use. How­ev­er, com­muters are ad­vised to pro­ceed with cau­tion and to fol­low all safe­ty pro­to­cols while trav­el­ling near the con­struc­tion site.

The com­pa­ny has im­ple­ment­ed tem­po­rary pro­tec­tive mea­sures in the in­ter­im and out­lined that the up­com­ing stages of work are de­signed to re­duce fu­ture risks and im­prove long-term safe­ty along the cor­ri­dor.

NID­CO ex­tend­ed ap­pre­ci­a­tion to the pub­lic for their pa­tience and co­op­er­a­tion dur­ing the con­struc­tion pe­ri­od.

The Cor­po­rate Com­mu­ni­ca­tions Unit of NID­CO is­sued the re­lease and not­ed that the or­gan­i­sa­tion re­mains com­mit­ted to com­plet­ing the project in a time­ly man­ner.
