The Second Niger Bridge , its Owerri Interchange and other ancillary infrastructure tied to the project get to the final stages of completion.

This project by Muhammadu Buhari will make life easier for South-easterners and cut their travel time during the rush-hour Yuletide.

After construction the project will join the Abuja-Kaduna-Kano Road and Lagos-Ibadan Expressway that will be tolled.
