so all the roads that has been bad for years should all be repaired by Tinubu in less than a year? Abeg make una dey wail with sense.

This is a coastal road, no one will be forced to use it when it's completed. It will even be tolled sef.

no.

It won't pass through edo state at all.
Khyrvxjzy:
no

but i know this road is going to ondo, so the nearest point to edo will be akoko edo


not sure the nearest point to ondo from edo
But the Coastal Railway was scheduled to pass through Benin City. Isn't the railway embedded into this road project?

i dont know

how long will the rail track be? and is it the main rail?

maybe it is a little rail track to take goods from the main coastal road

according to the umahi the rail is in between the road so their is no way a rail is going to benin since the road is not going to benin

is another rail linking the main rail

The one trillion is for the first phase, it will start from Lagos and end at the boundary between ogun and ondo state.

You can't expect Tinubu to rehabilitate all the bad roads in less than a year. The roads he has started rehabilitating are all under construction. If you know of any that Umahi started but has stop work, list them out here.

Even in the FCT, road construction is going on.
Their tenure has barely even started so there's nothing to talk about. Let's have this conversation in late 2026. Would love to hear your excuses then....

It's a welcome idea if it will come to pass,I know a lot of looting will go into this but it's time we allow ibadan expressway to rest, the transview will be another eye opener for nigeria when traveling

Do we really need this now? Of what economic essence is this road? Nigeria and misplaced priorities. We only endure all this rubbish cos we vote alongside illiterate and unenlightened people who only care for money given to them at the polling booth, and not what each person on the ballot has to offer



#MyOpinion
Capital expenditure is one of the way government create jobs.
The construction will create jobs and help businesses.
You shouldn't expect government to focus food or one aspect alone and abandon other sectors.
Or you expect government to keep giving palliatives/handouts

It's the original plan - "the coastal railway" has been mooted since the Jonathan era. The last government even tried to start it. I guess that project has been abandoned for the Umahi Road.

Lagos Calabar road 700km ; How many years E go be ?
(700 x 11) ÷200 =38.5years

Tigerland:

Nah, it'll take about 64 years.

120km took 11years

120/11 = 10.9km per year.

So to determine how long it'll take to build a 700km road, it's:

700/10.9 = 64.2 (i.e, 64 years and 2 months)

This is not time for such a big project however good it may be.
The economy is bad and we need to save for the Naira to appreciate.
Why not maintain the existing ones
. Is construction of new road the solution to the suffering of the masses.
I wish people vote for genuine candidate with interest of the people at heart in next elections.

Which car can drive 700km straight without stopping?

There should be exit road to each state, so people can branch out incase of any thing.

They should not build the road like mile2 to badagry road ...road that there is no room for stop-overs, no road sign and no U-turn.

There should be major stop overs along the road and also security operatives on the such a road...unless forget it....because there are a lot of road in Lagos that still needs to be constructed like the ailegun road ejigbo, ijegun road ikotun..even agric road ikorodu.


How about rehabilitating shagamu bypass road...that currently can destroy car suspension if you aren't careful

What about East-west road....or is it the same road? 700km road is a big project oo, they should not just use over 30years to complete this.
Forget they will use 50 years on this without private sector intervention.
