Promises to address inner roads next
Lagos State Government, yesterday, said that it had fixed over 393 roads across the 20 local councils and 37 Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs) in the state in the first half of 2024.
It also said that 240 roads across the state were attended to under routine maintenance, which typically entails fixing of pot-holes in an attempt to prevent them from degenerating into craters and major road defects, while 62 roads were treated with palliative measures, using majorly boulders among other materials.
General Manager, Lagos State Public Works Corporation (LSPWC), Tokunbo Ajanaku, who disclosed this in a statement signed by Assistant Director, Public Affairs, Samuel Ayetutu, said this was in continuation of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s commitment to infrastructure development and motorable roads in the state.
He said that the agency, through various approaches, which include the use of asphalt premix, interlocking paving stones and palliative interventions, is focused and would ensure that all roads across the state are visited.
The agency, therefore, appealed to residents of the state to bear with the government over any inconveniences the project is causing just as he said that constructions, reconstruction and or rehabilitation would soon commence on inner roads across the state.
Besides, Ajanaku urged with road users to avoid acts that are capable of undermining the durability of the roads.
