Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway (Phase One)
The first phase of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway is a 47.47 kilometer stretch of the highway that runs from Lagos. Construction on the first phase began in March 2024 and is expected to be completed by May 2025.
The Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway is a 700 kilometer project that will connect nine states and improve connectivity and economic activity along Nigeria's coastline.
The highway will also have multiple spurs that connect major cities and towns, including a spur that connects the Ogoja-axis of the trans Sahara trade route.
The highway is expected to cost N4 billion per kilometer and be completed in eight years. The project is being undertaken by Hitech Construction Company under a EPC+F model.
