Bad road network has become an issue of social tension in the country, coupled with population explosion in the urban centres with its attendant traffic congestions, President John Dramani Mahama saw the need to work towards this need which gave Greater Accra a fair share of the national cake.

Major road projects such as the Kwame Nkrumah Interchange, the Ring Road Flyover, the Awoshie - Pokuase Road (including community upgrading component comprising 14 schools, a market, a lorry station, two health facilities at Ofankor and Amasaman and water projects), the Giffard Road, the Burma Camp Road Phases 1 and 2, the Spintex Road by - pass, the Boundary Gulf House Road, the Ashaiman Road and some of the Gang of Four Roads (Tetteh-Quashie Interchange - Adenta and Achimota Ofankor Roads), among others, were either completed or close to completion before President Mahama left office.

Additional Resurfacing works were also executed in Ningo-Pampram, Tema, Ashaiman, Nungua, Teshie, La and Accra Central. Preparatory works for the redevelopment of the Accra-Tema Motorway into a six-lane road with four interchanges at Adjei Kojo, Abattoir, Teshie Link and Tema Roundabout began.
