Government to partner private sector investor to construct two major projects

Government is to partner a private sector investor for the construction of the Boankra Inland Port and the Eastern Railway line Project by the end of 2015 to add up to the transportation infrastructure in the country. 

The Minister for Transport, Dzifa Attivor said this when she appeared before Parliament to respond to a question posed by MP for Nsawam-Adoagyiri, Frank Annoh-Dompreh, on plans towards revamping the Accra-Nsawam Railway line. 

According to her, the two major projects are aimed at providing faster, safer and a more efficient integrated transport and logistics system for the movement of freight from the Tema Port to the Northern parts of the country as well as land-locked countries such Burkina Faso, Niger and Mali.
