  • Hi guys, In today’s video I will take you on a trip to Epe - Itamapako - Ijebu ode Expressway. This road project started on February 2020 and experienced some delays due to the COVID - 19 pandemic.
    The road is 14.7km dual carriage road and will be having; Toll plaza, road markings, road signs, lay - bys and a flyover interchange at the Ijebu - Ode end of the road. When this road is fully completed it will become a major evacuation point for a lot of industries along the Lekki - Epe Expressway and the Epe - Ikorodu road corridor.
    This road is about 75% completed at the time of making this video, it has only a few kilometers of road left to be fixed and the construction of flyover ongoing at Ijebu Ode which will help connect Sagamu - Ijebu Ode - Ore - Benin Expressway.

      I was thinking the same thing, the drainage looks dangerous.
      I personally don’t think a drainage is necessary on that kind of a road, it is an highway and not a road within a street. They should have just directed the the flow of water into the vegetation. That is the way many federal roads are built.

      Why won’t it look dangerous when half of money meant for the contract have been spent on luxury mansions in banana island. Most of the corrupt killer politicians fly using private jets because they knew how dangerous Nigeria roads can be because of boko haram terrorist parading the roads and killing sporadically.

    I read through the comments and I am genuinely schocked. This is an infomercial for a private company's toll road. This "road" covers a few kilometers, after which, you are on your own with pot holes. Given how basically sub-standard this road is, there is absolutely no reason for toll to be collected on this road. Plus, is there an alternative for those who do not want to pay these tolls? and, who puts pedestrian crossing in the middle of a forest? SMH
