What Abuja-Kaduna-Kano Road Will Offer After Completion – FG

What Abuja-Kaduna-Kano Road Will Offer After Completion – FG

 

The Federal Government has assured Nigerians that the ongoing reconstruction of the Abuja-Kaduna-Kano Road will bring significant socio-economic benefits upon completion.

 

These include reduced travel time, enhanced road safety, improved national security, increased trade efficiency, and job creation across the corridor.

 

During a recent inspection tour, the Minister of State for Works, Bello Muhammad Goronyo, expressed satisfaction with the progress and quality of the work being executed by Messrs Infiouest (Nig.) Limited.

 

He highlighted that six kilometres—three on each side—had already been completed using reinforced rigid concrete pavement.

 

“The quality of work delivered so far reflects the President’s unwavering commitment to national development through robust infrastructure,” the Minister stated, noting that the project aligns with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.

 

Commending the dedication of the construction workforce and their use of modern equipment, Goronyo added, “The commitment of the workers is commendable. I salute their resilience and their support for Mr. President’s vision.”

 

The road, once completed, is expected to last between 50 and 100 years, thanks to the adoption of rigid pavement technology, which is more durable than conventional asphalt.

The Minister described the quality of materials as “superb,” underscoring the longevity of the reinforced concrete structure.

 

Mr. Robert Turner, Project Manager and representative of the construction company, reiterated the contractor’s resolve to deliver a world-class road.

 

“There are no shortcuts. We are giving our very best to achieve the project’s goals,” he said. Turner revealed that construction teams work from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. daily, pausing only due to security concerns along the corridor.

 

The Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Works, Engr. Olufunsho O. Adebiyi, also lent insight into the technical reasoning behind the shift to rigid pavement, citing Nigeria’s challenging soil conditions, high axle loads, and water table levels.

 

He explained that conventional flexible pavements, particularly in high-traffic areas, had consistently failed.

 

“This new method, reinforced with Y20 steel bars at 200mm centres, is stronger than most bridge decks,” Adebiyi noted. “It is a sustainable solution that will outlast many of us and withstand the test of time.”

 

Adebiyi also urged motorists and commuters to exercise patience during the ongoing construction, assuring that phased openings of completed sections would help reduce inconvenience.

 

The Zuba section of the Abuja-Kaduna-Kano Road remains a critical artery in Nigeria’s transport infrastructure. With federal commitment and diligent execution, the road is expected to significantly improve movement, security, and commerce across northern Nigeria upon completion.
