Sobre esta Trap
The federal road through Ore, Ondo and Akure is being rebuilt as a dual carriageway, with a 24-month timeline set in 2024. In September 2026 a civic group reported that work on large sections had stood still for about five months. Expect rough stretches and slow traffic. Travel in daylight, leave a buffer of an hour or more before any flight or booking, and ask your driver which section is slowest right now.
