Corps Marshal Tasks Construction Companies On Placement Of Road Signs

The Corps Marshal, Federal Road Safety Corps FRSC, Mallam Shehu Mohammed has ordered construction companies to ensure adequate placement of road signs at all construction sites nationwide .

The Corps Marshal who gave the directive said this was to ensure the safety of the motoring public around construction sites.

To ensure full compliance, the FRSC Corps Marshal has therefore directed all Commanding Officers across formations to immediately commence strict and effective enforcement of this directive nationwide.

The Corps Marshal emphatically condemned the recurring failure by some construction firms to provide adequate warning, information, and diversion signs around project zones, an omission that places motorists and other road users at serious risk.

He emphasised that this directive is final and enforceable, noting that FRSC field Commands will intensify supervision, and any contractor found violating approved safety standards will face decisive regulatory actions.

He reaffirmed the determination of the Corps to collaborate with all stakeholders to ensure that the Federal Government’s investment in road infrastructure results in safer, more secure journeys for all road users.
