Cross River $350m railway project completes topographical mapping
The Cross River State government, in collaboration with Rinehooke Investment Ltd, has taken a crucial step in actualizing the $350 million Grand Litora Railway project with the completion of topographical mapping for the first 104 kilometers of the Calabar-Ugep route.
Unveiled at the Tinapa Free Zone Resort, the mapping signals progress in a project that promises to reshape the state’s economic and tourism landscape. The railway, stretching 365 kilometers, aims to connect major towns and cities, fostering mobility, trade, and development across Cross River.
Governor Bassey Otu had earlier performed the groundbreaking ceremony, marking a commitment to infrastructure development and economic revitalization. Speaking on the achievement, the CEO of Rinehooke Investment Ltd, Nelson Elemi, highlighted the railway’s transformative potential.
“The Grand Litora Railway represents a bold vision for the future of Cross River State and Nigeria at large. By linking major towns and cities in Cross River, this railway will not only enhance mobility and stimulate trade but also open up our state’s unparalleled tourism potential to the world. From the vibrant Tinapa Free Trade Zone to Obudu, home to the serene ranch and mountain resort, this project will make Cross River a premier destination for both domestic and international visitors. We are proud to partner with the state government on this transformative journey and remain committed to ensuring its success,” Elemi stated.
The Grand Litora Railway is not just a transport initiative but a bold vision for regional integration. By unlocking tourism potential and easing trade logistics, it is poised to drive socio-economic development, creating opportunities for residents and investors alike.
