Health & safety

  • Compliance with all applicable laws and regulations
  • Everyone has Stop Work Authority and is expected to use it
  • All incidents are measurable and preventable

Who we are

A Ghanaian road and civil engineering contractor

Propbureau Limited is a privately owned Ghanaian company established in August 2016. We build, rehabilitate and maintain roads, and deliver the drainage, earthworks and civil structures that go with them, for government agencies and private clients.

Our project team is led by engineers who spent their careers inside Ghana's road agencies. They know how roads are specified, measured, tested and certified, and they run our sites to that standard.
