First Section of Calabar to Abuja Superhighway Nears Completion

The first section of the Calabar to Abuja Superhighway is nearing completion, connecting Calabar through Ebonyi to Benue State.

According to the Senior Special Assistant on Media to the Minister of Works, Francis Nwaze, on his X handle on Monday, the superhighway is set to transform travel across southern and central Nigeria, reducing travel time from the South East to Abuja from about nine hours to between three and four hours.

The first and second photographs show the present status of section one of the Calabar to Abuja Superhighway, currently under construction, while the third photograph shows the virgin road where the second section is commencing.

TVC News Online reports that the second section has already been procured and will run from Benue to Nasarawa, while the final section will connect Nasarawa to Abuja.
