Thumbs up to GRCL

I would like to commend the Ghana Railway Company Limited (GRCL) for the effort in rehabilitating trains and rail lines which have not been in good shape.

Earlier this week, the rail transport from Tema to Accra was restored after the service had been suspended for some time and it, indeed, comes as a relieve to many commuters.

Rail transport, undoubtedly, is a fast and convenient means for traders and the general public and goes a long way to boost economic activities and create jobs. This is why many of us were worried over the suspension of the service for nearly two years.

Resumption of the service would afford traders and other individuals easy access to their respective workplaces and market centres without having to deal with heavy traffic on the major roads in the city.

I want to plead with the government to help sustain the operations of the railway company as it continues its expansion project to other parts of the country. The advantages of rail transport cannot be overemphasised and we cannot afford to erode the gains made in the sector so far.

Thumbs up to GRCL as it continues to do more for us.
