President John Dramani Mahama has cut sod for the construction of a new 300-metre berth at the Takoradi Port, in a $98.41 million expansion project financed by the Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority (GPHA).
The project, known as Berth 19, will be funded entirely through the authority’s own resources.
The expansion is expected to increase the port’s operational capacity, improve cargo-handling activities and enhance revenue generation.
It is also intended to strengthen Ghana’s trade infrastructure by providing additional capacity to support maritime commerce and growing economic activities.
The project represents an investment in the expansion of Takoradi Port’s facilities as Ghana seeks to improve the efficiency and competitiveness of its maritime sector.
