Katsina state’s Commissioner for Works, Housing and Transport, Mr Sani Magaji-Ingawa, disclosed while addressing newsmen on the outcome of the Council’s resolutions in Katsina on Monday that The Katsina State Executive Council has approved the release of N74.5 billion for the construction of additional township roads in the metropolis.
Ingawa said the project included construction of the eastern bypass, stretching from Dutsin-ma road to Kano road, passing through Daura road and terminating at Yandaki village in Kaita Local Government area. He added that the project involved the dualisation of the Katsina Central Mosque road through Kofar-Marusa to Kiddies roundabout which terminates at WTC roundabout.
“Another area to be dualized is the Yandaki-Shinkafi to Kofar-Sauri Road in the metropolis,” he said. The commissioner said another project was the extension of the dual carriageway from Airport Junction to the proposed bye-pass along Daura Road.”
