The Chief and people of Sefwi Kwaaso near Bibiani in the Bibiani Anhwiaso Bekwai municipality have blocked the road from Kwamekrom through Kwaaso to Chine forest.
The blocked road is the regular route for all timber contractors who log in the area.
The residents are unhappy that though they do brisk business using the road, they have failed to shape the road; making it worse with their timber merchandize daily.
Speaking with Awuku Addo Henex Radio Bibiani, the Unit committee chairman of the area Mr Kwame Oduro who was cladded in red attire poured out their grievances saying all attempts to sit down and reason with the contractors have been unsuccessful hence their move.
Some of the aggrieved Youth also insist they will not remove the road blocks until the road is brought to an acceptable shape.
CEO of COWBA Company Limited; Mr Kwabena Anane whose loaded timber truck was prevented from using the road also spoke with Awuku Addo pleading with the irate Youth to make way for him with a promise to gravel the road latest by next week Wednesday to make it motorable.
