I heard that this reconstruction will only stop at century busstop instead of stretching all the way down to Ago bridge to link up with the other dual carriage way earlier reconstructed by CCECC? Can anyone in the know confirm this? Because i noticed that no house/structure was demolished right from century busstop downwards. |

Hmm.... This sure has been needed for a long time. Good something is happening. What you don't see in the pictures is the corruption that has affected the road, "majorly". A road that's meant to be as wide as the Amuwo-Odofin connection, is soo narrow in comparison to the round about end (which leads to Cele, Isolo etc) and the Amuwo-Odofin road. If the width was maintained throughout the length of the road....ooh my...it would have been beautiful. But NO! |

I noticed dat d sidewalk for pedesterians is not elevated. It is of d same level wth d road surface. I thnk this will endanger pedesterians lives. The normal practice is to make sidewalks higher than d road surface for some reasons (1)safety (2) to prevent cars from parking on d sidewalk. 1 Like |

Before you guys get excited, please note that the picture do not reveal the true nature of that road. The work construction is so slow. Nothing has been done from Century busstop to Festac link road. The Chinese contractors are just so lazy to complete the road. I used the road during the weekend to navigate to surulere and I regretted it. Please when people want to throw hype make it true and fair. I believe it would take another 2 years to complete given the number of law-suits from building owners who don't want their houses to be demolished |

wise_many2k: My beloved ago jagajaga road! 1ce upon a time, I paid 50kobo from century to isolo. But I'm afraid dis road will not last. I witnessed d construction of d ago bridge to apple junction & Festac link bridge to oshodi-mile2 highway & there's a huge difference in the Manner of approach in fixing dis ago road. Unlike the former road mentioned where d whole earth was scrapped out & relaid, d construction guys are just pouring sand on d existing road. D right of way (distance btw drainage channels on both sides of d roads) is inconsistent cos some houses are deemed untouchable cos dey are can chieftains. I won't clap 4 dem yet until 2yrs after construction. You're very wrong oga.. The road was scraped to and new layers filled before the interlocking stones were placed. I live there, pass the road everyday and witnessed the construction from start till present status.. But having said that, they;re very inconsistent with the locations of the drainage and the way they've skipped some houses has made the construction confusing sef The construction is so bloody slow.. What is their deadline, and what are their targets? Who knows |

The new specco: I noticed dat d sidewalk for pedesterians is not elevated. It is of d same level wth d road surface. I thnk this will endanger pedesterians lives. The normal practice is to make sidewalks higher than d road surface for some reasons (1)safety (2) to prevent cars from parking on d sidewalk. In a bid to maximize space particularly on narrow roads that carries a lot of traffic, The new model of road construction in lagos makes the covered drainages to be at the same level with the road and thereby made usable by vehicles (as seen in the pictures). the sidewalks comes behind the drainanges. e.g bode thomas |

PapaBrowne: Why is Lagos always using interlocking stones to build roads? Is there scarcity of bitumen in the state?? It's much cheaper than asphalt roads. |

I reside at Ago, the road construction is very slow, sometimes its as if they have stopped working have you ever drive there when its raining? and it a big shame especially AP opposite parkview estate, i can boldly say that there is no single good road in okota/Ago. |

Dear Excellency, Thank you for all your good works on Lagos roads, please your Excellency can you help reduce the traffic from Iyana isolo and Cele to Ikotun most especially at the junction where the canal is (pako bus stop).Also ban street traders at Ikotun market.The road is small already and the market traders are not making it easy for us to get home after a hard days work. if you coming back into Ikotun after 4.30pm its a nightmare. sometimes you can spend 5 hours in the traffic jam and this is a regular occurrence. Thank you for your gigantic effort in improving Lagos. Eko o ni baje |

Lovely, i appreciate your effort. This is an example of what we should be doing, monitoring the progress of Projects in our area ( Local , state and federal projects) using the power of tecnology, with it we can keep the contractors and government on their toes, gradully together we will reduce the number of abandoned , low quality and fictious projects in our country. Rather than castigating, derogating and dividing ourselves along religion and ethnic line. Poster..Thumb Up! Cheers. 1 Like |

PapaBrowne: Why is Lagos always using interlocking stones to build roads? Is there scarcity of bitumen in the state?? The type of substructure or soil and environmental conditions in an area will determine the type of pavement for the roads For areas prone to flooding, interlocking will be great. They are also very easy to maintain as they can easily be removed at replaced They are not necessarily cheaper but definitely easier to maintain Eko o ni baje |
