FCTA Kicks Off Construction Of Railstations by yahaya1(m): 5:50pm On Feb 23, 2015
As Federal Capital Territory
Administration (FCTA) prepares to
meet the December, 2015 deadline for
completion of Lots 1A and 3 of Abuja
Light Rail project, the Transportation
Secretariat is to commence
construction of all stations/ terminals
in the two lots. Already,
arrangements are at an advanced
stage to remove all encumbrances at
the proposed site of the Metro Station
which is situated around the present
site of NNPC Mega Station in Central
Business District.
Acting Director of Transportation in
the Transportation Secretariat, Engr.
Alex Ezumah, who spoke during a
facility tour of the rail project sites,
said the NNPC Mega Station,
Advanced Link filling station, AP
filling station and a functional plaza
adjacent to AP Oil, have all been
marked for removal. He said the
owners of those facilities have been
notified just as arrangements have
been made to compensate them.
According to Engr. Ezumah,
construction of the Abuja Metro
Station will commence as soon as all
the encumbrances are removed
adding that the large expanse of land
will also serve as terminal for high
capacity buses and the National Rail.
He explained further that a total
number of 12 stations will be built for
Lots 1A and 3. These stations are the
Abuja Metro, Stadium and National
Park.
Others are the Ring Road Two, Wupa,
Idu, Airport North and Airport
Stations. The Idu Station is the
melting pot of Abuja Light Rail and
the National Rail. It is also a transfer
station which accommodates the
maintenance depot and parking yard.
From Idu Station, the second line
which is called Lot 1A takes off to
Gwagwa, Dei-Dei, Jibi, Gbazango,
Byazhin, Kubwa and to the final
destination at Bwari.
According to the director, the rail
project on completion, is expected to
reduce travel time and cost, boost
commercial activities in FCT as well
as generate different categories of
employment. The Lots 1A and 3
project covers a total of 45.24km and
is about 59 percent completed.

So the FCTA don't think that nyanya axis should be paramount in their plan to decongest that route.
