The Lagos–Calabar Coastal Highway project is steadily progressing, with the current phase involving the laying of reinforcements at CH 70+490 – CH 70+345 (RHS). This activity forms part of the ambitious 700km coastal highway development designed to link Lagos to Calabar, opening up major opportunities for economic growth, tourism, and trade across Nigeria’s coastal corridor.
The highway is being constructed as a modern dual carriageway, featuring five lanes on each side, a central rail line, and elevated pavement levels engineered to withstand flooding for up to 50 years. These design features underscore the project’s resilience, efficiency, and long-term strategic importance.
