Abstract
Studies have revealed that stakeholder management and sustainable principles consideration are
essentials for mega construction project success. The aim of this paper was necessitated by the fact
that though there is stakeholder dissatisfaction and lack of studies on the sustainability of the Aiport
City Project (ACP) Accra, there is a proposal for second phase development. This paper evaluates
stakeholders’ and sustainability measures considered for the ACP’s long term sustainability. A mixed
method approach and purposive sampling was adopted. The 70% quantitative survey response rate
was validated using six (6) semi-structured interviews and data analysed using a descriptive survey
method.
Key findings indicate that peer review of designs, project stakeholder meetings, project approval in
principles and development monitoring were the measures instituted for stakeholder and sustainability
considerations rather than the entire stakeholder management process. The research concludes that the
ACP is only medium term sustainable due to low level stakeholder consideration, services
infrastructure development, high vehicular traffic congestion, high rental values, socio-economic and
cultural factors which are challenges for long term project sustainability.
