File

The Federal Government has expanded the fruition date for the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway venture by one year. 

Succinct News assembled that the move was to account for more work as the Federal Government has endorsed. 

The venture should be finished before the finish of 2017 however was later moved to late 2018/mid 2019 because of extra workload. 

In any case, Punch reports that the undertaking will now be done before the finish of 2019. 

As indicated by the Federal Controller of Works in Lagos Adedamola Kuti, "The finish of 2018 is not any more possible; what we have is that the legislature has granted extra work that isn't a piece of the first contract. 

"At the point when the agreement was first granted, we didn't mull over the religious associations that are jumping up quickly in the region. 

"So now, we need to make arrangement for toll entryways, flyovers, and squares, among different augmentations. 

"Along these lines, the fruition date has been broadened. We require [an] extra one year to finish the work that has been included." 

Around multi month prior, the Federal Government affirmed the N64.108bn for more work on a segment of the street venture dealt with by Julius Berger.
