Section 2 of Lagos Ibadan express reaches 16% completion

Mr Nkereuwem Ukpong, the Deputy Director, Federal Highway
(South West), Federal Ministry of Works, said the
reconstruction work on Section 2 of the Lagos-Ibadan
Expressway had reached 16 per cent completion.
Ukpong, who is the engineer representative in charge of
Section 2 of the expressway, told the News Agency of Nigeria
(NAN) in Lagos that other aspects of the reconstruction work
so far completed included drains and culverts.
"We have achieved up to 16 per cent completion and then we
have finished works on the asphalt level up to the binder
course.
"We have completed up to 16 kilometres of binder course;
binder course is the course you put before you have the
wearing course.
"As for the works there, you have clearing of the median, you
have the building up of the sub-base, base course, and then
we have drains.
"We have a longitudinal drain that runs throughout the entire
length of the project from Sagamu to Ibadan.
"Where we have there, we have constructed the drain of about
16 kilometres as well on it.
"And then we also have cross culverts which we have built,
about 22 of them that takes water from one side of the road to
another and then we have catch-pits in between.
"The challenge is in controlling the traffic, the road is one of
the main arterial roads that takes goods from the ports and
passes through Ibadan to the North."
