Drivers who used the road daily added that we have to always visit the mechanic anytime we use the road because our vehicles always break down and as a result, we sometimes do not want to use the road at all.


However, the residents further appealed to the Government and the Department of Urban Roads (DUR) to improve the dilapidated road network in the area which has over the years impacted their businesses negatively.



They added that the people of Gorjiase are a farming Community who produces cocoa, plantain, cassava, Cocoyam and among others.


The assemblyman for the area Hon. Frank Danso also said, how the residents of Gorjiase are suffering from the bad nature of the road in the area is very bad especially pregnant women who usually die while transported during labour due to the bad nature of the road.


Gorjiasehene Nana Mark Oyisi also speak about the bad nature of the road in their Community but called for immediate intervention by the government to reshape the road for the people in the area.
