Governor Dauda Lawal of Zamfara State has restated his administration’s commitment to creating job opportunities for the people in transportation business.
Governor Lawal stated this while flagging off the construction of Central Ultra-Modern Motor Park on Sokoto-Zaria Road in Gusau, the state capital.
He revealed that the project awarded to Fieldmark Construction LTD would include ample parking space, rest areas for drivers, enhanced security installations, and a well-organized ticketing system to streamline operations.
Lawal emphasized that the project is a vital part of his administration’s commitment to improving urban infrastructure in Gusau, the state capital.
“This initiative will enhance security, boost revenue generation, and enable our city to compete favourably with others across the country”, he added.
According to him, this state-of-the-art motor park, will feature modern facilities designed to accommodate commuters, passengers, and commercial motorists in a safe, efficient, and organized manner.
“Other essential components of this project include designated departure lines, a police outpost, a clinic, a fire brigade station, a mosque, an administrative block, a union office, public conveniences, a park hotel, a loading bay, a shopping mall, a travellers’ terminal, a waste disposal unit, a warehouse, a workshop, and a car wash area,” he stressed.
The governor reaffirmed his conviction that providing critical infrastructure, such as the roads his administration began constructing shortly after assuming office—some of which were inaugurated during the first anniversary—is one of the most effective ways to stimulate business activities and build prosperity.
“Beyond its economic impact, this initiative also beautifies our state capital by our broader vision of creating a modern, vibrant, and liveable environment for our people,” he said.
