The Federal Government has assured residents of the Federal Capital Territory that the Nyanya Bus Terminus will be speedily completed to enhance human and vehicular traffic in the area.
The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Alhaji Mohammed Bello made the promise on Tuesday during an inspection tour of the project.
The bus terminus was destroyed by the Nyanya bombings of April 14, 2014 which left dozens of people dead and several vehicles burnt.
Bello also promised to deploy the necessary resources to ensure timely completion of the project.
“From what we have seen, construction work has gone on to about 60 per cent according to the contractors and our engineers.
“And as you can see, it is a very massive complex consisting of departure and arrival halls, a banking hall, garage for the basic maintenance of motor vehicles as well as commercial block.
“So from what I have seen, it is very important for us to deploy resources, human and material to make sure that the place is completed as quickly as possible,” he said.
The Minister also promised to address the omission of access roads in the original design of the project.
“For a complex of that nature, looking at the traffic, both human and vehicular, it is important to have a very clear cut entry and exit with a road that is well constructed to be able to carter for heavy duty vehicles.
“That is a challenge but we are going to look at that,” he said.
