LASG REITERATES COMMITMENT TO LIGHT UP LAGOS


Fashola

Lagos State Governor Babatunde Fashola has reiterated his administration’s commitment to light up all parts of the state in order to improve security and driving at night. Fashola said this during the dedication of a seven-kilometre traffic light from Jibowu to Maryland. He noted that the completion of the project had enabled lighting-up programme that spans parts of the state from Marina to Western Avenue through Agege Motor Road to Oshodi.

Fashola explained that the choice of Ikorodu Road for the lighting-up programme was quite symbolic because of its strategic position, not only for the state but the country as a whole. He said, “The light-up will improve the safety of drivers and pedestrians; reduce accidents that are caused by poor visibility and keep citizens safe in their vehicles from attacks by gunmen.

“In 2012, over 40 such streetlight projects were completed. Every road project now has a streetlight component when rehabilitation, reconstruction or upgrading is undertaken.” He added that the coming on stream of Mile 12 – Ikorodu Road rehabilitation programme would further extend the state’s effort to open up Ikorodu. Fashola restated his administration’s commitment to realising goals of development through the provision of infrastructure.

In his remarks, Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure, Dr. Femi Hamzat, stated that the project was designed to operate on the PHCN lines with support generators. He urged the public to continue to support government by taking ownership of the various projects within their communities in order to ensure their protection.
