According to the Minister of Works, David Umahi, the road would have two spurs that will link up with Northern Nigeria to further integrate the North and South regarding movement of people, goods and services.

The construction will take eight years and cost N4 billion per km, totalling N15 trillion.

The first phase of the highway running through the nine coastal states is the 47.47km section beginning from Victoria Island, Lagos. It has five lanes on each side of the dual carriageway and a train track in the middle.
