The Federal Government on Tuesday said it is set to immediately commence the rehabilitation of failed portions of the Lagos-Sango-Abeokuta federal highway.
Babatunde Raji Fashola, the Minister for Works and Housing, announced this during a teleconference between the Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun and the minister’s team.
This followed an intervention by Governor Abiodun over the deplorable state of federal roads in that corridor.
In an earlier statement, the Governor Abiodun’s Chief Press Secretary, Kunle Somorin, had said areas of immediate attention are the failed portions around Sango-Ota on the Lagos – Abeokuta express road and the Otta – Idiroko road.
The governor’s media aide noted that those portions of the federal roads have become a nightmare to motorists and commuters.
A team of engineers from the Federal Ministry of Works is now expected on Thursday for preparatory assessment ahead of the rehabilitation works.
Present at the meeting called at the instance of Governor Abiodun was the Minister; Managing Director, Federal Road Maintenance Agency (FERMA), Engr. Nurudeen Rafindadi; Director of Federal Highway (Construction and Rehabilitation), Engr Folorunso Esan; among others.
Governor Abiodun assured residents of the state that his administration will leave no stone unturned in his commitment to building and upgrading public infrastructure across the state.
