…Major roads in Onitsha, Nnewi and Awka to be dualized
Gov. Wilie Obiano of Anambra State has re-stated his administration’s resolve to dualize the 33km Nkwelle Ezunaka road.
Obiano who disclosed this at a function in Onitsha said,”This is part of measures by government to decongest vehicular traffic within the Onitsha metropolis”.
He pledged his government’s readiness to expand the Awka road in Onitsha to enhance traffic flow in the commercial city.
Gov. Obiano then announced government’s intention to open up inner city roads in Onitsha noting that the projects would be accomplished through Public-Private-Partnership (PPP) arrangement.
The governor informed that government had commenced rehabilitation work on the failed portions of Enugu-Onitsha expressway to reduce the current traffic experienced on the Old Awka-Onitsha road.
He said that it was regrettable that inflow of traffic and unnecessary delays were caused by the deplorable condition of some roads, saying his administration would embark on construction of all roads at the end of the rainy season.
Gov. Obiano had earlier assured ndi Anambra that major roads in Nnewi and the fast developing capital city would soon be dualized to meet international standard.
