A statement made available on Friday by the Commissioner quoted the governor as saying that his administration was prepared to ensure the uplifmentt of infrastructure in the State, adding that the government would ensure that adequate attention is given to roads that target the economic expansion drive of the state.

The statement further indicated that the determination to ensure infrastructural growth in the state informed the decision of Governor Makinde to devote 23.93% of the 2020 budget to infrastructure development.

It reiterated the decision of the administration to institute a culture of quality road construction in the State, adding that the government was ready to build roads that would stand the test of time. The Makinde administration has a 20-year plan for road sustainability in the State.

According to Prof Afonja, “Governor Seyi Makinde has also given approval for the reconstruction of failed hydraulic structures in different geographical zones across the state. “Some of our major roads within the State have been disconnected and this is occasioned by the collapse and dilapidation of the hydraulic structures (bridges and culverts) on these roads during the last year raining season.” 
 
The statement added that Engineers from the Ministry of Public Works and Infrastructure have visited the locations of the affected hydraulic structures, while necessary appraisal reports have been submitted. 
Afonja said: “The carefully selected roads from the various zones of the State, which were  approved by His Excellency for rehabilitation and reconstruction include the following: 
1.  Airport -Ajia-New Ife Express way with spur to Amuloko (21KM). 
2.  Apete-Awotan-Akufo junction road (12.0KM). 
3.  Saki-Ogbooro-Igboho (44.70Km). 
4.  Reconstruction of Under G-Stadium-LAUTECH Gate Road, Ogbomoso (3.0KM). 
5.  Takie-FGGC Road, Ogbomoso (2.5KM). 
6.  Reconstruction of Isaba-Ogundoyin Road, Eruwa (2.50KM). 
7.  Rehabilitation of Gedu-Oroki-Sabo-Asipa Road, Oyo (5.20KM). 
8.  Akingbile-Lagbeja-Ajibode road (3.0KM).”
