Project Overview

The Emuren–Ipele Road Dualization is Envostructs' largest single active consultancy assignment — a transformative 14.85 km dual carriageway project connecting Emuren (Emure) junction to Ipele in Owo Local Government Area, Ondo State. Commissioned by the Ondo State Ministry of Infrastructure & Physical Planning, this flagship road corridor opens up a key arterial route through Owo LGA, improving movement of people, agricultural produce, and commerce between communities in the Owo hinterland. Envostructs provides comprehensive consultancy services: design review, resident engineering supervision, quality control, and full project management across all work fronts. The corridor includes full road dualization, bridge and culvert construction, roadside drainage, pavement markings, signage, and street lighting along the 14.85 km alignment.
