Government constructs New Air Traffic Control Tower at Kotoka International Airport

The Minister for Transport has disclosed that work is underway to replace the ageing Air Traffic Control Tower at Kotoka International Airport with a modern, state-of-the-art facility.

The current tower, which predates Ghana’s independence, is being phased out to make way for a safer and more efficient structure.

Construction of the new tower is already 20 percent complete.

When finished, the facility will house a Visual Control Room, Approach Radar Room, Technical Equipment Room, and Operations Room, designed to meet international aviation standards and improve flight safety and efficiency at Ghana’s busiest airport.
