On road infrastructure,  Ing. Adams stated that the sector had a score of 2.79 out of 5 points.

He therefore, called on the government to look critically at the standard of road construction in the country.

He suggested that the government develops a regular maintenance schedule for already constructed roads since it is one of Ghana’s key infrastructure.
