A three week pilot program dubbed “Weekend Away” has been organized by the Metro Mass Transit. The essence of this program was to assess the feasibility of transporting Ghanaians and tourists alike to tourist destinations in the country. This pilot was done with the best performing staffs of the company together with their families. The Weekend Away program is meant to help workers relax after a stressful week by visiting tourist sites in Ghana. The program will start very soon
