…visits Trans-Kalabari road site
The Governor of Rivers State, Mr. Siminalayi Fubara has expressed satisfaction with the pace of work at the ongoing 12.2-kilometre Trans-Kalabari Road Project in Port Harcourt.
During the visit to the site today, Monday, 27th October, 2025, he noted that the pace and quality of work being executed by Lubriks Construction Company, was commendable.
He inspected the piling work on Phase 1 of the project which has reached about 75 percent completion, describing the progress as satisfactory.
“I personally came here to inspect this project. This is the Trans-Kalabari Road we flagged off about a year ago. I’ve been getting reports from the Ministry of Works, but I felt the need to come and see for myself what is happening here,” Governor Fubara explained.
He stated further that the first phase of the project, which extends to Bakana, includes four river-crossing bridges and nearly five decks on piles, adding that the difficult terrain has made the project technically demanding.
“With what I have seen, I can rightly confirm that almost 75 percent of the piling work, which is key to completing the road, has been achieved. By the grace of God, in the next six months, I am very positive that when we return for inspection, we might run through the bridge,” he added.
Governor Fubara reiterated his administration’s resolve to execute projects that will directly improve the lives of the people and promote even development across the state.
“This is a key project that will turn around the lives of the Kalabari people immediately it is completed,” he concluded.
