Honestly it is appalling. I know what I faced last week on my way to yaba, we spent several hours in traffic because of these selfish dunderheads. This isn't d only place they do this rubbish, on the expressway especially on your way to Ilorin, the narrow Oyo-Ilorin road u'll see them Park their trucks on the road At a stretch.

The worst thing is that most of them are northerners, they come into your domain and start trying all sort of rubbish.

You even see them along Ore, Edo, Delta roads(those who travel to the East know better). They are the major causes of traffic on the road while travelling. These trucks destroy our already destroyed roads thereby making it worse than it already is God help us!

The best thing is that they are Nigerians. They are within their domain.

na only tanker Autojosh never get

Teewhy2:
i no know say Autojosh don get containers, Luxurious bus e.t.c well for Lagos.

AutoJoshNG:
It has become a regular sight. It is the long stretch of parked trailers. They all line up along the stretch of a massive 12.4km of expressway, from Onipanu to the ports in Apapa.

Several bridges along the way are not spared of their presence and enormous weights. The bridges include: Ojuelegba, Abati, Stadium, Ijora, Iganmu, Eko, Carter and Jibowu bridges.

These parked articulated vehicles are also the cause of the chaotic traffic flow on and around these bridges.

They typically cause journeys that ought to be in minutes to last for hours.

Even the government appears incredibly clueless about a solution the situation.

Only God knows how long Lagosians would have to put up with this nuisance.

...was expecting an aerial view

The FG should make other ports to work to decentralise and reduce these menace.

Migrating gradually into 2nd rainbow/ Ago Palace way axis too

This is absurd but off course there are many more ways to breach this traffic

12kms. WTF. No wonder road no dey last spoil

This is a ticking time bomb waiting to explode. May we and our families be spared on the day of any disaster caused by those parked trailers and container trucks. What is the LASG doing to perpetually put an end to this highly potential dangerous situation? Can't a trailer park be built? Can't a law be enacted to discourage drivers from parking their trailers on the road?

They ought to build deep sea ports in other parts of the country and decongest Lagos. But Yoruba greed will never allow it

as a stakeholder in the maritime business, I will point out some salient issues, there are 3 ports (2 major, Apapa quay and Tin can) and there is PTML, successive government have abandoned the roads to port to an unbelievable rot, the shortest route from Oshodi to Apapa is through Mile 2 /coconut road but it is impassable, neglected and in serious decay, if you are loading a container going to Agbara, you have no business going towards Area B/ijora road bcoz its a long journey and wrong route, so the only accessible road to the 3 ports is Area B through western avenue, and alas the only road got damaged too!!! And this compounded d situation, though it is under repair by guess who? Dangote! FG couldn't fix the road to the 2nd revenue earner of d govt, another point is the terminal operators, d ports were privatized in 2003/2004 to private entity but they don't have d capacity to handle d deluge of containers coming into d country, Nigeria imports virtually everything, the 3rd issue is the empty containers, the shipping companies don't have regulatory bodies to caution them on where to drop off the emptyies, you can not laden trucks with containers without providing holding bay for the emptyies, the FG should as a matter of urgency send powerful delegation to the ports before the economy is grounded, the only luck they have is that the supposed union for truck owners are fake and self serving, if not they should have caused a major shake in d economy, trust the petrol tankers union, they are the bested!!!!

Let them continue instead of government to put all Nigerian ports to standard they refuse using only Lagos port to import fuel for a country of 200 million bkecause he need Yoruba votes,parking trailers on top of bridges where is that one done to use bridge as trailer park,

SHEBI NO FUNCTIONAL PORT SHOULD EXIST IN D EAST OR ELSEWHERE APART FROM LAGOS cos of hatred induced injustice

SHEBI ODA REGIONS NO GET COAST NIGERIAS FOUNDATION IS BAD Nigeria should keep doing herself,thinking say na me
i have no respect for all the so called founding fathers!!

This is what you get when you don't hv a functional railway system.

When Yorubas have made sure that all major shipping activities remains in Lagos thats what you. All the Ports in the Niger Delta are rusting away due to low patronage. Dont tell me about militants because it started years before the militants emerged to fight against injustice in their land

Escodeb:
There should be a legislation to ban this trucks in places like this.
Economically it doesn't make sense to transport goods from one state to another talkless of one region to another through this means of transportation.
Damages done to the roads and bridges across the country and most importantly loss of lives and properties daily through this same means of transportation when order safer means of transportation can be utilized.

Nice... after the ban what then? Are the railways conducive? Federal or State needs to invest in trailer parks, and make sure police enforce the law properly. The problem is not the trailer drivers.

Several ports in Niger Delta but low patronage. Govt need to face diz buh the nigga at the top izz not willing

gerrardomendes:
They ought to build deep sea ports in other parts of the country and decongest Lagos. But Yoruba greed will never allow it

So Onne port is not a sea port?

This is NIGERIA...look how we living now...

Ignoramuses parks their HGV trailers on a weak bridge. that bridge will colapse one day.

trailer queue has beeen shifted to lokoja okene express , lol see queue

I see this nonsense as a deliberate attempt to destroy Lagos.
