The Federal Government has approved ₦359bn for a new Carter Bridge in Lagos and ₦134bn to upgrade the 152km Kano–Katsina Road.
Minister of Works Dave Umahi says the new bridge will have “expanded lanes, pedestrian walkways, and state-of-the-art safety measures.” The road upgrade will cut travel time and boost trade between the two northern hubs.
Both projects are expected to create jobs, improve safety, and drive economic growth. Work begins next fiscal year.
