The Nzema East Municipal Assembly in the Western Region has cut the sod for the construction of a storm drain at \u2018Borlaso\u2019 in the municipality ahead of the rainy season to prevent flooding.<\/p>\n
According to the assembly, the estimated cost of the project is GH\u00a2295,000 and has been awarded to Patart Construction ventures and will be completed within three months.<\/p>\n
The Municipal Chief Executive (MCE), Eric Essien who performed the sod cutting ceremony attributed the intermittent flooding in the area partly to inadequate drainage systems and chocked gutters.<\/p>\n
He was therefore hopeful that the assembly\u2019s intervention would significantly reduce the impact of flooding in the municipality, particularly, in the Borlaso community.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are making all efforts as an assembly to ensure that our municipality is ready to receive any impending rain and to also not cause too much havoc,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
He said there were instances where contractors were awarded projects to execute but handed them over to foremen who sometimes sell the items meant for the construction.<\/p>\n
\u201cI will plead with the residents to also help monitor the work of the contractor so that the project can be completed on scheduled,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
He said the assembly was very determined to make the area safe for residents and visitors adding, \u201cI am certain that with the initiative taken, the flood prone areas in the municipality would not be flooded again\u201d.<\/p>\n
