The Federal Roads Maintenance Agency (FERMA) has successfully carried out extensive road maintenance along the Lagos-Badagry-Seme Border Dual Carriageway.
The project, which spanned the stretch between Iyana Shashi, Customs, and Morogbo was completed by direct labour under the Lagos II West field office, aimed at improving road safety and easing transportation within Lagos State.
The maintenance work included the patching of potholes, massive desilting of drains, repair and recovery of severely damaged sections of the road and embankment to ensure structural stability.
According to the Federal Road Maintenance Engineer, Lagos West Field Office; the repairs were deemed essential to maintain the structural integrity of the road, which serves as a crucial route connecting Lagos to the Seme Border, facilitating both local and international trade.
The agency said the repair works are in tune with the vision of its Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer, Engr. Dr. Chukwuemeka Agbasi.
“Our commitment to maintaining and improving Nigeria’s road network is unwavering, to efficiently and effectively monitor and administer road maintenance is the mission of the Federal Roads Maintenance Agency (FERMA).
“FERMA, through its Lagos II West Field Office has reaffirmed their commitment to road maintenance and promised to extend the intervention to other failed sections of the Lagos-Badagry-Seme Border Dual Carriageway.
“Road users have already started to experience improved travel conditions, reduced traffic, and enhanced safety following the completion of the project.
“FERMA remains committed to maintaining critical road infrastructure across the country to ensure safer and more efficient roadways for all Nigerians.”
