There are other fly-over bridges in Enugu.

okeyglm:
I can swear, gburugburu can't complete that fly over in 2yrs. Another osisoma fly over is about to happen in Enugu. ugwuanyi and ikpeazu are like sesame twins. incompetence.

Shut up there.
Don't ever compare Gburugburu with your Okezie Ikpeazu, or Enugu and Abia

booscy:


The multiple storey buildings at Onitsha and the high rise Office complexes at marina Lagos aren't they same multi level buildings?

they are not same . high rise building starts from 7 or 8 storeys. so Onitsha doesn't have high rise building. what you see is low to mid rise. from 1 to 5 storeys. the only high rise building in anambra is Dr maduka's 17 storeys building.

iti I am from Enugu. now run away.

We have always advised that you travel out of you hol* in Oshogbo...

Be man enough to go beyond Sagamu and you will see wonders...

For benefit of those who might be as gullible, less informed and utterly ignorant like you...that axis is the worse in traffic in the city.

Vehicular movement form the north, through Benue to the SS of Port harcourt come through Enugu using that road.

So, Johnmartus many vehicle pass that road...lol.

Abeokuta alone 6 flyovers, Ogun state got more fly over than all eastern states dis is for record purpose

okeyglm:

what you see in enygu is not a flyover but overpass bridge. are you more educated than commissioner of works or governor.

I don't blame you. Just because you saw a title/post (COMMISSIONER/GOVERNOR), you refused to use your brain.

Winterfell2:
After they'll compare Enugu to Port Harcourt. Not saying flyover is a yardstick but they should know their level. Having a first flyover when small cities like Uyo and Abakiliki are numbering 4 is shameful.

Enugu has several fly overs. I believe this is just the first being undertaken by a state government.

There are fly overs at 9th mile, Trans Ekulu, Gariki, Ugwuaji, Amechi, Abakpa by Thinkers Corner underpass, New market etc. I have mentioned more than 5.

Read the post again. Although as someone who knows Enugu well, and living in Lagos, I don't think the location of this current flyover is where it is needed.

We don't take on white elephant project just for the sake of it. A flyover is well needed at Abakpa Texaco or Liberty junction, Mayor Agbani Road, Holy Ghost Ogbete. A flyover is not needed at this Nike Lake

That will be the greatest achievement of his administration if he completes it before the end of his second tenure.

Originalsly:
So flyover is now a major achievement and something for residents to brag about. Is this flyover necessary?... can someone post a photo let us see the gridlock in the area?.... how much these projects cost they never say... and residents never want to know.... this speaks a whole lot about the locals.

. My brother the gridlock around T-junctn is second to none in Enugu. I live in Trans-Ekulu and drive through there when going to minister in my cousin's church near Nike-lake resort.

HacheNoire:
First fly over bridge

And they worship God more than the devil in Enugu state, and still backward

First fly-over in 2021

Is this suppose to be joke, or its true.

Enugu has flyovers ( like anamco flyover) and interchanges, this is just the first being built by a state government since this 3rd republic

Bro, don't just read the headline, also read the full story. The proposed flyover isn't at Nike Lake, it is at T-Junction Abakpa. Nike Lake is just the nearest landmark to the site.

Ikeast:
That's commendable.. Atleast Enugu state has join the league of Flyover....

This is not the first Flyover in enugu. People should stop embarrassing themselves

Can you post us photos of the gridlock area?

Foolishbuhari:


Do you know the cost at which Sanwo concluded the bridge he commissioned? You can pass on your point without self indictment!

No.... I don't know.....can you tell us how much?

I didn't mean exactly Nike Lake. I am also using it as a landmark. I know the exact point after a certain Caesers Palace hotel.

I also know that there are still more flyovers like the one at Anamco Emene, the one at New Heaven junction.

And some corrections, this may be the first by this administration. I learnt Sullivan built the one at New heaven junction.

If for anything, this post has exposed the fact that some states only have 4 flyovers and they are comparing it to a well planned city like Enugu.

Flyover is not also a yardstick for development. I just believe there are points where flyovers are more needed

okeyglm:
taa mgba fo there. ikpeazu has far worked than him

Ikpeazu that can't pay monthly salaries and pensions regularly

Ikpeazu that will construct a road today and rain will wash it away tommorow

Ugwuanyi isn't working but Ikpeazu is dead

Nobody is counting number of flyovers, ogbe-ni.

What is contested is that he claimed that few vehicles used the road and so no need for the project.

How you weren't able to comprehend the article is a surprise.

I will suggest you do more on your education. lol

okeyglm:
this is public forum . it is actually ist fly over. what you normally see in Enugu is overpass bridge. have you been to abakiliki or awka or Onitsha that's where they have numerous flyovers. Enugu has no flyover.

Overpass is American, flyover is British English.
They are one and same

mabea:


Photos to prove what exactly?

To show the gridlock. No photo... is there something we shouldn't see?

Originalsly:

Nobody needs to prove anything to you, besides you don't wait for a gridlock to happen before you prepare for it.

All these people screaming flyover here, flyober there. Well planned cities do not need any flyover. Except the ones over sea or connecting two points. How many flyover does New York have. Almost all their bridges are over sea or connecting two un-connected points.

In as much as there are other parts of the city that have traffic gridlocks, you cannot compare them to T-Junction, considering the it's role as a gateway/corridor.

I just don't know what to say
So flyover is a yardstick for measuring development in Nigeria.
What happened to trams,subway stations, etc you find in cities around the world even in Africa.

gburugburu also hasn't paid pensioners too. Enugu soil texture and Abia aren't the same. the quality of work done in faulks road you can never see that in Enugu. we can agree that both governor aren't the best in South east. Enugu should be thanking sulivan for the facelift he did in Enugu. if dundee like you elect another Ugwuanyi in the next dispensation . benue will be child's play.

eaglechild:

take excursion to awka. it won't cost you 600. is there any cross road. didn't the flyover start from a to b. even Abia has overpass bridge long ago. but ist Abia state flyover is at osisomo.

Originalsly:


No.... I don't know.....can you tell us how much?

Then on what grounds can you ask same for citizens of another region?

Originalsly:


That's what we're told.... can we get photos?

You asked too late. The road has been blocked. I have personally spent hours on this road due to gridlock at the T-junction.

Foolishbuhari:

Hmmm.... citizens of another region.... I see where you're coming from. Same grounds.... same question regardless of location.

This is not the first flyover bridge in Enugu. Enugu Airport flyover, New Market flyover, Trans-Ekulu flyover, Ugwuaji Flover and New artisan Flyover are all in Enugu town.

This Is a very poor reportage.

Thank you! In some places... flyovers are really needed. In others... it's about road planning.... especially when there is space to build new roadways for traffic to avoid gridlock areas. Someone recently posted a video of a new flyover... it was hardly used... but on the local roads below there was still gridlock.
As a motorist there.... do you think this flyover will ease the gridlock a lot?... and is it worth it?
