Lagos State government has flagged off the reconstruction of the Oshodi-International Airport Road, with a pledge to complete the project within 15 months.
The State governor, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode, had last month at the quarterly Town Hall meeting held in Badore area of Ajah, announced that the reconstruction of the road, which is a major gateway into the country, would commence in September, and that the construction would facilitate the transformation of the road to a world standard.
Specifically, the design of the project include the reconstruction and expansion of the existing carriage to three-lane expressway on both sides, construction of two-lane service road in both directions, construction of ramp bridge to provide a U-turn from Ajao Estate to Airport, construction of a flyover at NAHCO/Toll Gate and drainage works.
