JMDB Gives 7-Day Deadline to Remove Illegal Roadside Structures Across Jos

 


The Jos Metropolitan Development Board (JMDB) has announced the enforcement of a ban on illegal roadside structures across the Jos metropolis, giving affected operators seven working days to vacate designated public spaces.

According to the Board, the enforcement targets un


approved kiosks, canopies, umbrellas, makeshift stalls, car wash points, car sales stands, and other temporary structures
erected on highway setbacks, road medians, roundabouts, and other government-reserved areas.

JMDB said the exercise is part of ongoing efforts to restore order, improve urban planning, enhance road safety, and ensure the free flow of traffic within the metropolis.

The Board warned that operators who fail to comply within the stipulated seven-day period will face enforcement actions, including the removal of illegal structures and other sanctions in line with existing regulations.

Residents and business owners have been urged to cooperate with the authorities as the government continues its urban renewal programme aimed at creating a cleaner, safer, and more organized city.
