The Lagos State government has announced a night traffic diversion at the Ojuelegba flyover by the fire station for the installation of truck barriers.
The Lagos State Commissioner for Transportation, Oluwaseun Osiyemi, said this in a statement on Thursday.
He noted that truck barriers previously installed on the flyover were damaged by vehicles.
Mr Osiyemi said the diversion would be from 10:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 26, to 5:00 a.m. on Sunday, October 27.
“Consequently, motorists are advised to use the highlighted route below during the nighttime installation of the barriers.
“Motorists from Eko Bridge/Constain/Iponri inbound Ojuelegba are to make use of the service lane from the National Stadium gate to link Barracks to access their desired destinations,” he said.
Mr Osiyemi urged motorists to stop damaging the barriers or face the consequences.
He implored them to be patient during the brief closure of the bridge.
The commissioner said the installation was planned for nighttime as a traffic management strategy to avert accidents.
