The motorway was closed to traffic for construction works to be carried on the three-tier Tema Motorway Interchange.
The project had a June 6, 2020, deadline but it has been completed before the scheduled date.
The Interchange is a $57 million project being financed under a grant from the Japanese government through its agency, Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).
The interchange will facilitate easy connection from Accra to Aflao and onwards to Togo, as well as the Akosombo road.
