The Federal Government has assured that the first 47 kilometres of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway, currently under construction, will be ready by May 2025. The Minister of Works, David Umahi, gave the assurance while inspecting an evacuated but now refilled section of the road that was once a dump site. Umahi said that the construction company was reliable and would achieve one kilometre of concrete pavement in a day; hence, the stipulated duration of the project would still be attained.
First, it is good quality work; the most difficult aspect of this is the settlement of the sand,” he said. Earlier, the Federal Controller of Works in Lagos, Mrs Olukorede Kesha, explained that the evacuation of the refuse dumpsite had slowed down the construction work. She, however, assured that the refuse evacuation would not affect the duration of the project significantly.
