Ghana Railway Development Authority has invited bids to convert the 950 km rail network from 1067 mm narrow gauge to standard gauge, permitting 25 tonne axle-loads and increasing speeds from 56 to 160 km/h. In the longer term, feasibility studies will look at introducing a suburban rail service from Accra to Kasoa, Winneba and Madina, as well as extending the railway to the north and connecting with the proposed Ecowas rail line across West Africa.
