Work on the Ofankor-Nsawam road is progressing steadily, with workers seen at the site doing concrete work and road filling.
However, despite the progress, residents of Shikpong Telle have raised concerns about the lack of a footbridge, which they believe would help reduce road accidents.
Residents who spoke to Adom News expressed their worries about the safety of pedestrians, especially children and the elderly, who have to cross the road daily.
They appealed for a footbridge to be constructed to provide a safe crossing point.
“We have to walk about 1 and half kilometers to Toll Man everyday to use the footbridge because we don’t have one here at Shikpong Telle”.
Adom News captured footage of women carrying their babies crossing the road, highlighting the risks that pedestrians take daily.
“We stay at Kuntunse-Satellite going to church at Pobiman we have always cross the road because the closes footbridge is not complete so we are afraid to use it.”
The residents’ concerns underscore the need for a footbridge to ensure the safety of pedestrians and prevent accidents.
