New and Improverd design of Lagos Ibadan Express Road READY

The tempo of construction works on the Lagos-Ibadan express road is soon to increase with the completion of the “new enhanced design” of the road.

Sources say that Julius Berger handles the six-lane Shagamu Interchange and Lagos end of the road, while RCC handles the 84-kilometre Shagamu-Ibadan (Ojoo interchange) part of the road.

The road is made up of a two-lane dual carriage of 7.3-metre in both directions: 2.75-metre of outer hard shoulder and 1.8-metre of inner hard shoulder and median.

When completed, it is expected to be fully equipped with world-standard amenities that will eliminate the current hazards associated with the road, which was commissioned in 1978.
