BRITISH-AMERICAN FLYOVER PROJECT STEADILY PROGRESSES WITH ASPHALTING WORK

Work on the British-American Flyover and Dualisation to Lamingo Junction Roundabout in Jos has progressed steadily as the contractor sustains his commitment to complete the work on schedule. 

Dr. Makut Simon Macham 

Director of Press and Public Affairs to Governor Simon Bako Lalong in a statement made available to this medium stated that a visit to the site shows that ashphalting works on the slip roads around the main flyover and the stretching from the flyover to the second bridge.

Engineers were seen busy carrying out several activities including intermittent temperature measurement, density and other bituminous properties of the asphalt as part of the processes of quality control.

Already, the main structure of the flyover has been done while the connecting bridges towards the Lamingo Junction Roundabout are also completed. 

Motorists and residents have expressed delight at the pace of work and are eager to have the flyover and dualised road commissioned and opened to traffic which will make life easier for them.

They commended Governor Simon Bako Lalong for initiating the project and keeping his promise to ensure its completion before the end of his Rescue Administration.

During the Governor's last visit to the site, he stressed to the contractor Craneburg Construction Nigeria Ltd that the project must be completed on schedule as it is one of those to be commissioned by President Muhammadu Buhari soon.
