He promised to complete the Ejigbo-Ajao Estate link bridge,which has been approved by the house, in order to reduce traffic logjam on the road.

Bamigbetan revealed that a jetty will be constructed at Ejigbo for the use of ferry boats, adding that the project has been approved by the appropriate quarters.

He promised the rehabilitation of 30 major roads in the council, 10 of which will be completed every year of his administration.
