The Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Adegboyega Oyetola, has said the completion of the Tincan Port access road has cleared the gridlock in Apapa and improved the ease of doing business.
The road rehabilitation was done two months after Oyetola reached out to his counterpart in the Ministry of Works, Dave Umahi, over the need to fix failed portions of the port access roads in the country.
Oyetola, while debriefing his technical team on Wednesday in Abuja, said access roads to other ports in the country would also be fixed soon.
He said fixing the access roads to the seaports in the country would not only resolve the gridlock on those corridors but also increase port efficiency and aid the country’s economic growth.

The works minister, in a letter to his counterpart, dated February 14, 2024, titled “Re: Urgent Request for Rehabilitation of the Federal Access Roads to Key Ports,” noted that “the access road to Tincan Port, Lagos, has been successfully completed.”
He also noted that “The ministry has awarded a contract for the rehabilitation of the access road to Lagos Port complex in Lagos State,” adding that the contractor would soon mobilise to site.
