The Ogun State Government has begun works on the 4.65-kilometre road of Akute, in Ifo Local Government off to Denro Ishashi in its state.
Engr. Ade Akinsanya who is The Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure made this announcement.
While inspecting the ongoing works on the road, Mr Akisanya spoke to newsmen, saying, that the palliative work currently going on in the area was just a temporary measure to reduce the hardship of road users, he also added that the road is part of the economic linkage that Prince Dapo Abiodun-led Administration in the State was looking to revitalise.
Mr Akinsanya also disclosed that the road coming from Sango to Akute, where the bridge can be seen would also be done, calling on the people of the State to be patient with the State Government in its resolve to make roads across the State motorable.
He further highlighted that the palliative works would be done on Ojodu Abiodun-Denro Ishashi-Ajuwon-Akute Alagbole-Yakoyo, and Alagbado-Oke Aro-Lambe-Matogun Roads and their environs.
“This road is a vital road. It is a road linking us with Lagos State. It is part of the economic linkage this Administration is trying to revitalise in this area. The new road is coming very soon. The design is ready. To make it motorable when it rains is the reason for the palliative work we are doing here today.
There has been a lot of complaints on the road, but the Governor has directed us to make it motorable, even in the interim.
“There will be a brand new road linking this place to Lagos. It is a 4.65-kilometre road. At the same time, the road coming from Sango to Akute here where you see the bridge – that also will be done,” he said.
