Ghana 2008 - Constructions of bus shelters

 

 

 

 

In 2008, Gateways Services Limited (GSL), Cotecna’s operation in Ghana, commissioned and installed three bus shelters as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility program through which they aim to participate in Community actions in the vicinity of their office and port operations.

The bus shelters provide protection from the sun and the rain, but also improve visibility of the actual bus stop. At the same time they dynamically promote the company.

The three bus shelters are strategically located on both sides of the extremely busy Accra road that is the main highway running from Togo through Ghana to Cote d’Ivoire. Called the Tema Tetteh

Quarshie Motorway Extension, this road serves as the principal link-up road to Tema, Ghana’s busiest and biggest port where GSL operates a fixed scanner as part of its DI contract.

The Accra-Tema motorway is regarded as one of the most impressive road networks in Ghana constructed under the leadership of the late President Kwame Nkrumah the first president of Ghana in the sixties. One of the objectives of the President of Ghana, His Excellency John K. Kufuor, is to improve the Ghana road network system. He recently commissioned the sod cutting ceremony to reconstruct this busy highway into an ultra modern six lane road.

The high visibility and functional aspect of GSL’s bus shelters has prompted members of the public to commend GSL for the initiative.
