    The 78-km Tema to Akosombo road linking the harbour city to the inland port at Akosombo has been commissioned, Ghana’s Joy FM radio reported on Tuesday. The road was upgraded from a bitumen to an asphalt surface with a 23.8-billion-deutsche mark loan from Germany and Ghana government funding. First built in 1963, the road serves landlocked Burkina Faso, Mli and Niger.
