In his word, the minister said “Today council approved the award of contract for the construction of access roads for the Abuja light rail. You are aware that Mr. President has given the directive that he wants to ride on the metro line. Now it will not be possible if there are no access roads to commuters in communities around.”

 

The minister said while the FG approved three road projects in last week’s meeting, Monday’s approval concerns LOT 4 for communities around the airport and Abuja Hajj Camp.

 

“If you don’t create parks and access roads, it will be difficult. And so the council decided to approve this to MSSRS CCECC at a cost of N5.9bn.

 

“We believe that this access road being created and some car parks, we believe hopefully by next year most of us will be joining the metro line,” the minister added.
