The Kwara State Government has announced a partial closure of the Post Office to Challenge section of Muritala Mohammed Way, scheduled to begin on Sunday, June 15, 2025. This measure is part of the state's ongoing infrastructure improvement initiative aimed at upgrading critical road networks.
According to a statement issued by Olajide Abolarin, Press Secretary to the Ministry of Works, the road will remain accessible to motorists during the construction period, but temporary traffic diversions will be implemented to facilitate the work.
The Honourable Commissioner for Works, Engr. Abdulquawiy Olododo, advised road users to anticipate possible delays and exercise caution when navigating the affected area. The public has been urged to comply with traffic management directives and follow signage provided by officials on site.
"We regret any inconvenience this may cause and thank the public for their understanding. This project is vital to boosting the road's economic utility and enhancing connectivity, in line with Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq's urban renewal vision. We're committed to completing it swiftly and efficiently," Engr. Olododo stated.
The government has assured residents that all necessary measures have been taken to minimize disruption, with public safety being prioritized throughout the duration of the work. Road users are encouraged to plan alternative routes and stay informed about updates during the project period.
This infrastructure upgrade is expected to significantly improve the road's functionality and contribute to the state's overall development plan.
