“There will be no more potholes by December this year” – FERMA

The Managing Director of the Federal Roads Maintenance Agency (FERMA), Engineer Gab-riel Amuchi, has said that the agency has embarked on a drive to achieve zero potholes on selected federal roads of economic value by December this year.
He stated this while on an inspection tour of ongoing pot-holes patching along the Abuja-Kaduna road. He said that the agency has been directed by the Presidency to achieve zero potholes on the identified roads to ensure that mass vehicular traffic is not hampered during the Yuletide season.
“FERMA`s operations are now well positioned to respond effectively to the challenges of maintaining all federal roads in the country, with the acquisition of relevant machinery tailor-made for round the clock road maintenance. Among the automated equipment acquired and deployed to the selected federal roads are FP5 patchers, wheel loaders and back hoes, as well as sundry hand tools for day to day road maintenance,“ he said
