Delta State Government has warned that it would shut down unauthorised motor parks and markets in Warri and Uvwie in Delta South Senatorial District next year.
Warri, Uvwie and Environs Special Area Development Agency (WUEDA) Director General, Godwin Ejinyere, said the January 2024 deadline is to enable the agency restore the beauty of the oil city.
Ejinyere, who spoke in Effurun on Christmas Day after a drive round both cities, said the areas included Jakpa, Airport and Enerhen junctions, Udu Road to express junction in Ovwian, Effurun roundabout, tankers park and express junction by refinery bridge, and Ugbuwangue junction along NPA expressway.
Others are PTI junction, DSC roundabout, Ugbomro, Otokutu and Mofor junctions along the DSC expressway, Okumagba Estate, Okere Market, Warri Main Market and Igbudu Market by Hausa quarters, DDPA, Ugborikoko and Edjeba junctions along Airport Road and Ekpan roundabout in Ekpan.
According to him, these areas have been illegally used as motor parks for indiscriminate parking and loading of vehicles, especially tricycles, along the roads and at road junctions.
He said broken down vehicles abandoned on the roads would be impounded by government agencies working in synergy with his agency, to bring sanity to both cities.
He said owners of such vehicles would be sanctioned by a mobile court.
Ejinyere said unauthorised markets in any part of the oil city would be shut, adding that such markets had compounded the chaotic vehicular traffic situation.
