Ghanaians were pleased to learn of the construction of the 97.6 km long railway project when it initially became public since it will make commuting easier for many locals. Earlier this year, the Minister for Railway Development, honourable John-Peter Amewu, stated:

Between Afienya and Tema, there is a lot of traffic, as we are aware. As a result, we will purchase two reasonably used trains to transport travelers between Tema and Mpakadan. This should relieve traffic congestion and provide comfort for travellers. We are working toward it, and it will be completed soon.

Several netizens reacted favourably to the photos showing the latest update on the railway project. YEN.com.gh samples a few comments below.
