The Ghana Railway Company is awaiting a safety certification from the Ghana Railway Development Authority, GRDA, to enable the company to resume operations along the Tema-Accra route.
This follows the completion of refurbishment works on one of the four locomotive Coaches, with a passenger capacity of 279.
According to the Managing Director of the company, John Essel, the refurbishment of 10 of the Coaches for Tema, Achimota and Nsawam has become necessary to help keep the company in business following a long period of shutdown.
He told the Minister of Railway Development, Joe Ghartey, who toured the facility that the refurbishment also requires safety certification by the regulator on whether the company is fit to operate the shuttle.
