The projects cover roads, including Bashorun Oluwo-nla, Agbowo road, Eleyele-Water road, and Zion plaza-Olusoji Road.
They are expected to be completed in less than 8 weeks.
This is according to a statement signed by the Chairman, Oyo State Road Maintenance Agency, OYSROMA, Hon. Busoye Ogunlade on Friday, in Ibadan.
He said the ongoing rehabilitation is based on fund availability and the economic viability of those roads.
Ogunlade said the move was in line with the commitment of the Seyi Makinde-led administration to make the state more attractive to both local and foreign investors.
"Governor Seyi Makinde has given us the mandate to rehabilitate roads across the State, and we have mobilized Engineers, through direct labour to these sites," he said.
He noted that to make the exercise have the desired impact on the people, the Agency has gone across all zones and picked critical roads that need rehabilitation across the State.
"This is borne out of the complaints we received during zonal town hall meetings from residents of the state. Our Engineers have swung into action and have taken measurements of critical roads," he said.
Hon. Ogunlade said rehabilitation works have commenced on some of the roads, while OYROMA Engineers will move to the remaining ones soon.
"Work has commenced on some of these roads, as we speak. However, repairs on other roads will commence soon."
He therefore advised commuters to follow temporary traffic diversions and cooperate with the ongoing construction efforts.
