About the Flower Pot Interchange

President Nana Akufo-Addo commissioned the Flower Pot Interchange on November 19, 2024.

During the commissioning, he urged stakeholders to safeguard the interchange for the long term so that it could serve its purpose.

The interchange is intended to ease traffic flow on the Tema Motorway's north and south corridors.

The new construction consists of an 802-metre dual-carriageway viaduct with asphaltic concrete surfacing.

A 140-metre ramp from East Legon links the viaduct to Airport Hills, while an 80-metre ramp connects the viaduct to the motorway towards Tema.

The flyover was funded by the Afrexim Bank and the government of Ghana at a reported cost of GH¢677.8 million.
