BOLGA:New market complex to take off soon

 
Market complex  

Plans are far advanced in the construction of a new market complex for Bolga and its surrounding environs.

Municipal Chief Executive for the area, Edward Ayiriba Ayagle who disclosed the details of the project yet to take off in the municipality has stated that the move will surely be accomplished to open up trade and commerce in the area.

He made this known in an interview with Ghanadistricts.com to discuss some major infrastructure projects being initiated in the municipality.

He claimed that the Assembly is in contractual agreement with two major companies who have considered to support the huge project for residents of the municipality.

Melcom Group of Companies and Allied Bank are the two main investors that have resolved to partner the Assembly to undertake the project, he stated.  

Mr. Ayiriba observed that the market facility for the area needed to be improved in such a way that it could befit the status of the Bolgatanga municipality, hence the need to redevelop and relocate the old market at Atulibabisi to a considerably larger place where construction of the new facility can be possible.

He stressed that the Assembly acquired the site for the project as far back 2007 at Daporetindongo, but was quick to note that the project has now become compelling because of the social development of the municipality.

The Assembly is currently relocating all squatters and temporal structures on the site to ensure a quick take off of the project on board.
