To ease traffic movement for commuters during the
forthcoming Christmas and New Year seasons, the Federal Government has
temporarily opened the entire Abuja-Kaduna-Kano road.
Until when the contractors are expected to be back from
break after the festive period, all the two lanes of the road that has over 380
kilometres will be opened for commuters’ use between now and January.
Folorunso Esan, the Director, Highways and Rehabilitation in
the Federal Ministry of Works and Housing, made the disclosure while inspecting
the three sections of the road project in Zaria.
He explained that from Abuja to Zaria, the whole road is
cleared of barricades, stressing that there is no barrier from Abuja to Kano
now.
The Director explained that the Abuja-Kaduna-Kano road is
the major road in the entire North, saying that there should not be any kind of
gridlock during the festive season as whatever is left of the work, the
contractor will come back in January and continue.
He explained, “This is because the contractor will close for
the end of the year holiday and leave the road for free flow of traffic.”
