Expressway connecting the Lekki and Epe districts in Lagos State
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lekki–Epe Expressway is a 49.5-kilometre (30.8 mi) expressway connecting the Lekki and Epe districts in Lagos State.[1][2] The Lekki-Epe expressway was first built in the 1980s. It was built during the Lateef Jakande's administration.[3] It is the second private toll project in Africa.[4] The road construction project was financed by the African Development Bank. The bank provided a loan of up to US$85 million to help fund the upgrade and rehabilitation of the Lekki to Epe expressway in 2008, and it was based on Public-Private Partnership (PPP) under the Design, Build, Operate (DBOT), and Transfer and Rehabilitate, Operate (ROT) framework/business model.[5]
The Lekki Concession Company manages the toll road. [6]
