Zamfara Assesses Road Infrastructure Around Federal Institutions
The Zamfara State Government has commenced an assessment of road infrastructure within and around the Federal College of Education (Technical), Gusau (FCET), and the Federal University Gusau (FUG) as part of efforts to improve transportation networks and public infrastructure across the state.
The initiative was disclosed in a statement issued by the spokesman of the State Ministry of Works and Infrastructure, Comrade Jamilu Bello, and made available to journalists in Gusau on Tuesday.
According to the statement, a team of technical engineers led by the Director of Civil Engineering, Engr. Tsalha Mayana, has been deployed to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of road conditions in the affected areas.
The assessment is expected to identify road sections requiring urgent intervention and provide technical recommendations for rehabilitation and construction projects aimed at improving accessibility and mobility.
The ministry noted that the exercise will also cover adjoining access roads and surrounding areas to determine the scope of infrastructural improvements needed to facilitate easier movement for students, staff, and residents of neighbouring communities.
In a related development, another team of engineers has been assigned to carry out a boundary assessment between the Federal College of Education (Technical), Gusau, and Pride FM Radio.
The ministry explained that the exercise is designed to establish the exact boundary alignment and evaluate the level of infrastructural work required for possible government intervention within the area.
According to the statement, the ongoing assessments reflect the commitment of the administration of Governor Dauda Lawal to strengthening infrastructure development and enhancing road connectivity around key educational institutions across Zamfara State.
The government reaffirmed its resolve to improve public infrastructure as part of broader efforts to support education, economic activities, and community development in the state.
