Warri-Sapele Road: You Can't Ply This Road And Not Spend At Least 2 Days On Road - Photos

This road in Sapele, Warri in Delta state can humble you especially when you are going for an appointment that needs you to be in Warri in no time. The Warri-Sapele Road is no respecter of anyone, once you are on this road, you are likely to spend at least two days moving like a snail.

This road was shared by an expatriate and some road users that were going to Sapele for business. According to them, they have been stuck on this road for days. The road is in real mess such that trucks, cars are struck for days due to the bad roads and inability for cars to navigate the road easily.

 The Warri- Sapele Road has been left untouched for years despite the state having one of the highest in terms of allocations, almost half of roads in Delta state are unmotorable. The Warri-Sapele road is less than 10 years after it was dualized by SETRACO GROUP and since then maintenance seems to have stopped and no followup was done since 2009.

The road is so bad that it will take you at least 2 days to get to your destination if you ply this road. Many road users are tired and angry that both federal and state government are not willing to do anything on this road.

These are some of the photos of the road...

Since the closure of the Kara bridge that leads to the ever-busy of Lagos-Ibadan Express road, little has been heard or seen about the progress of the road especially those who ply the road regularly have no clue.

According to reports, the construction of U-Drains and Earthworks are currently ongoing at the Km 5 of the Kara Bridge along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway. This is part of its rehabilitation, reconstruction and expansion of the road.

The construction was being handled by Julius Berger Nig PLC and it is expected to be completed before December.

It will be recalled that On September 2, 2019, the partial closure of the Lagos-Ibadan expressway commenced. The closure became necessary in order for construction work to be carried out in some sections of the expressway.

The construction work would include the expansion of the expressway, construction of underpasses, footbridges, flyovers, toll plazas, etc. According to the Federal Ministry of Works, the reconstruction become necessary so that the road will be free before Christmas and New Year.
