The Lagos State Government has announced plans to divert traffic at Ikeja Along Bus Stop between Ile Zik and Conoil Petrol Station on the Oshodi bound lane Saturday and Sunday, between the hours of 12 midnight and 4:00 am daily.
According to the Commissioner for Transportation, Oluwaseun Osiyemi, the diversion is to allow for seamless and safe demolition of the old pedestrian bridge.
He explained that the traffic diversion will not affect motorists on the Dopemu/Abule Egba-bound side of the road during the course of the demolition, adding that the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority, LASTMA, will be on ground to manage vehicular movement and minimize inconveniences.
The commissioner urged motorists to be patient, as the closure is part of the traffic management plans for the safe removal of the old pedestrian bridge by the Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority, LAMATA.
