In its quest to becoming a mega-city, the Lagos State Government has flagged off the building of a 10-lane Oshodi-International Airport Road.

The state Commissioner for Waterfront Infrastructure Development, Adebowale Akinsanya, said at the ceremony that the project will be completed within 15 months.

Akinsanya said that the state government took it upon itself to undertake the reconstruction of the road, being one of the busiest roads in the state with vehicular volume average of 50,000 daily.
