The Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, says the completion of the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway is scheduled for mid-September, years after reconstruction commenced on the ever-busy route.
Umahi said this today during an on-the-spot assessment of the newly rehabilitated Eko Bridge, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, the reconstructed Apapa Oshodi expressway, the Deep-Sea Ports, and other Federal Government projects on the Lagos and Ogun corridor.
According to the minister, the Eko bridge is an important link in the state and will not be left unattended while promising that the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway will be completed in mid-September.
According to the scorecard released by the Ministry of Works and Housing towards the end of the previous administration, a total of 8,352.94 km of roads were constructed or rehabilitated between 2016 and 2022.
