Ilorin East Local Government Area of Kwara State has witnessed remarkable land use growth and development, therefore resulted to motor traffic congestion, inadequate parking space, improper refuse dispose, inadequate drainage system, congestion on walkways, overcrowding and insufficient ventilation for residential building. The research accessed urban growth and its consequences on infrastructural facilities in Ilorin East Local Government Area. Satellite image collection was based on both LandSat Enhanced Thematic Mapper (ETM) data of 1995 and 2012, and High resolution imagery (Google Earth) of 2005 and 2012. Data on the perception on consequences of urban growth on infrastructure was sourced through the use of structured questionnaire, Face to face structured interview and Reconnaissance observation to identify the infrastructure facilities (land use pattern, road condition, sewer disposal etc). The Satellite image was analyzed using Maximum Likelihood Classification that gave a broad classification where the land use were identify by a single digit and Calculation of the area in hectares of the resulting land use types for each study was generated. Reliability analysis using Cronbach’s Alpha, descriptive statistics to get frequency and percentage proportions of the variables to examine the state of utilization and challenges for better understanding and chi square was used to obtain the significant differences of available infrastructures in the purposive wards which can be used for general analysis. Built-up area was recorded the highest amount of change from 23.02% in 1995 to 28.7% in 2012. High resolution image obtained from Google Earth was also used to show the trend and rate of urban growth in the study area. 400 questionnaires were administered for this study. Cronbach's Alpha equals 0.725 for the entire questionnaire which indicates an acceptable degree of reliability of the entire questionnaire. The result obtained shows that there is no significant differences in the Address of Residential Area and availability of the infrastructure facilities. Recommendations proffered to address these challenges include; Adequate and Provision of new infrastructural facilities such as water facilities, electricity, good roads, sewage bins e.t.c. Provision of adequate security in urban growth area to control the rate of destruction and vandalization of infrastructural facilities. Provision and enforcement of housing plan by the government can help in reducing urban Growth effects on infrastructures in the study area. Regular and proper refuse disposal by the appropriate Government Parastatals can help improve the quality of sewage disposal site.
