The tour, according to the MP, was to find solutions to problems of residents in the afore-mentioned areas.
It was also to enable him obtain first-hand information on the level of development in those areas.
Titus-Glover, during the tour, visited the ‘Ya Bi Onye’ area in the Dade Agbo Electoral Area, Oniku Electoral Area, Tema Manhean and the Chemu Lagoon and Harbour Electoral Area.
At the ‘Ya Bi Onye’ area, the MP expressed displeasure at a poorly constructed bridge.
He further expressed displeasure at the way in which the bridge was constructed over a damaged pipe and wondered why the pipe was not fixed to prevent treated water from gushing out.
‘I had to write to the Tema Metropolitan Assembly (TMA) about the problem it created around that area. My people have not been able to use the road for close to three years. This, I must say, has affected a lot of activities in this area,’ he noted.
Continuing, he said the bridge was only constructed after he wrote letters to the TMA.
‘Even though they rushed down here to have it fixed, it has not been properly done and that is why treated water continuous to run into the gutter,’ he said and urged the one who supervised the construction of the bridge to quickly fix the pipe.
To ease vehicular traffic in the area, especially during rush hours, Hon. Titus-Glover said talks had begun with Urban Roads to find alternative roads that could allow residents to access certain parts of the area without spending long hours in traffic.
He specifically mentioned that one of the roads in the constituency is being considered for construction.
The road, when constructed, is expected to link the area to the Valco area, according to him.
He told a team of media personnel, who accompanied him on the tour, that he had already interacted with the Minister of Roads and Highways, who called for a survey in the area so as to come out with ways to reduce congestion.
‘My people are forced to seek refuge elsewhere anytime there is a heavy downpour here because of the trouble the uncompleted drains give them. I am told that two separate contractors were awarded this construction project sometime back and they have all failed to complete it,’ he said.
‘I am in parliament because of my people. I will do everything I can to help bring change to them in the area of sanitation, education and infrastructure development.’
