Vice President John Dramani Mahama today announced that government would spend part of the Chinese loan to establish the Accra Intelligent Traffic Management system to stem the perennial traffic congestion in the city.

He explained that a control tower would be built and managed by professionals who would monitor and regulate traffic lights to enhance free flow of vehicles in the city.

Vice President Mahama announced this in Accra when he commissioned 100 new ASHOK LEYLAND buses procured by the Metro Mass Transit (MMT) Company Limited.

President John Evans Atta Mills left Accra yesterday for the United State of America to attend the 2012 G8 Summit scheduled for May 18 and 19 at Camp David near Washington.

The meeting which would address global food security issues is also attracting three other African Leaders who were also invited to parley with the world's richest nations.
