The Ogun State Government has initiated a new phase of road maintenance across the state in preparation for the festive Yuletide season.

This initiative, managed by the Ogun State Public Works Agency (OGPWA), aims to enhance road conditions, facilitate traffic flow, and improve safety for residents, commuters, and tourists.

During a statement on Thursday, the Special Adviser to the Governor on Public Works, Babatunde Adesina, emphasized that this initiative is part of a continuous road improvement program designed to stimulate economic activities and ensure safer mobility throughout the state.

Adesina stated that the state is dedicated to maintaining both major and local roads in a motorable condition throughout and after the holiday season.

“We recognize that the Yuletide season brings increased travel, and it is our duty to ensure that the roads are safe and accessible. This new phase of maintenance reflects the government’s commitment to providing dependable infrastructure for the residents of Ogun State,” he remarked.

He further explained that the current repairs will concentrate on high-traffic corridors, connecting roads, and vital routes linking major communities. He mentioned that the agency has already deployed several teams across the three senatorial districts to guarantee timely completion.

“Our teams are actively engaged in pothole repairs and other essential maintenance tasks. We want residents and travelers to enjoy smoother transit as they go about their activities during this festive season,” Adesina added.

He urged the public to assist the agency by reporting areas that need immediate attention, as community feedback plays a crucial role in the agency’s rapid-response efforts.
