WARRI/Nigeria: The Delta State Governor, Senator Dr Ifeanyi Okowa had stated that the construction work along the ever busy Warri-Sapele Road, in the Oil City of Warri, had led to free flow of traffic in the town.

The governor who inspected the Effurun axis of the road in Uvwie local government area of the state, expressed satisfaction with the quality of job executed on the road project.
The Governor disclosed that the initial contractor handling the Bus Rapid Transport (BRT) project was the one engaged in the reconstruction work. “This is a very busy road and so many factors were put into considerations for us to have a road that will withstand the load, traffic, so, it was redesigned for us to have three lanes on both side,” the governor said.
He assured the people of Warri and Effurun metropolis of his administration’s commitment to develop the area, stating that more link roads would be constructed.
