Crucial for development, this significantly reduces the drive distance for trucks carrying rocks to the sea wall, a mile and a half offshore, helping to speed up construction.

Speaking to journalists on the ongoing construction of the Eko Atlantic City road network, the management of the mega city said they are on track.

According to their spokesperson, “Eko Atlantic’s main Eko Boulevard and roads will be a role model for 21st Century urban planning. So far, over 28 kilometres of roads have been completed to stone base level and 25 kilometres have been block paved.”

The road networks are supposed to ease traffic and create easy access roads.

'Crucial for development, this significantly reduces the drive distance for trucks carrying rocks to the sea wall, a mile and a half offshore, helping to speed up construction. Previously, the route from the entrance of the Eko Atlantic City to the sea wall was around five kilometres,' the statement said.

Adding that 'This new access reduces the distance to just two and a half kilometres. Furthermore, it provides unhindered access to the completion of road works in phases 1 and 2 of Eko Atlantic.'
