Ihiagwa Bridge Nearing Completion:

A Testament To Progress

By Ambrose Nwaogwugwu, November 07, 2024.

As the Ihiagwa bridge receives final concrete casting on the last bay of the bridge deck, the project moves closer to completion.

This significant milestone sets the stage for the construction of approach slabs and bridge ramps, which will seamlessly connect Ihiagwa to Obinze.

The 17Km Naze-Nekede-Ihiagwa-Obinze road project has seen its drainage works completed, with road formation and asphalt laying set to begin aggressively in the coming weeks.

Upon completion, this road will greatly enhance interconnectivity and alleviate the persistent traffic bottlenecks at the Emmanuel College intersection.

Leo9 Asphalt Company, the contracting firm, has shown exceptional dedication to advancing the state’s infrastructure.

This project aligns perfectly with the vision of His Excellency, Governor Hope Uzodimma, affectionately known as the #PeoplesGovernor, who continues to deliver on his promise of a greater and more prosperous Imo State.

Kudos to the #PeoplesGovernor for his unwavering commitment to the development of Imo State!
