LASG ANNOUNCES DIVERSION OF TRAFFIC ON APAPA-OSHODI EXPRESSWAY FOR REPAIRS OF AIRPORT FLYOVER BRIDGE

The Lagos State Government has announced the diversion of traffic on Apapa-Oshodi Expressway for repair work on the Airport Flyover Bridge by the Federal Ministry of Works from August 9 to October 3, 2021,

A statement signed by the Commissioner for Transportation, Dr. Frederic Oladeinde, explained that the Oshodi-bound lane would be barred from vehicular movement from midnight on 9th August, 2021 and reopened partially on the midnight of 14th August, 2021 for the first phase of repairs.

He stated that the second phase will commence immediately for a duration of \seven weeks to hasten the rehabilitation works, stressing that motorists will be diverted from the main carriageway to the service lane of the Oshodi bound lane for the first five days.

Oladeinde also revealed that traffic heading towards Oshodi-bound lane will be diverted to the service lane at Ladipo, while those heading to Mile 2 will be diverted to the Airport Road, adding that two lanes on both Oshodi and Mile 2 roads will equally be open to vehicular movement to ease traffic.

The Commissioner assured that the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) will manage the flow of traffic and minimise inconveniences that will arise as a result of the rehabilitation work on the bridge, stating that alternative roads have been identified and fixed in preparation for the traffic diversions.

He appealed to motorists to drive with caution and forbearance as this will help ameliorate the traffic gridlock that may arise during the rehabilitation period, affirming that the safety of Lagosians is a top priority of the Lagos State Government.

Recall the inferno that occurred in January 2021 on the Apapa-Oshodi Expressway as a result of the explosion of a PMS loaded tanker, affecting the structure of the Airport Flyover Bridge at Toyota on Oshodi/Isolo Expressway.

good job

By 2023 lagos will regain back it's lost glory by becoming the capital of southern Nigeria.

This I have seen.

Ok

Whao, another round of discomfort.
But it's for the general good.
That bridge had been sealed off since the tanker fire accident last year.

Good one.

Hasten the work please.

Tough time...

We don't mind the time in traffic sacrifice, All we need is good road and fulfilled promises

Long over due, the Lagos state police taskforce
Just turn that area as a business center, if u want to go to airport from mile 2, u have to turn many around, and if u no know road them go chop u, say u follow one way, in other states if a route is being closed, the road safety will divert u to follow one way but in Lagos is an opputunity for those idiot, even when their is no sign at first

You people had one whole month of no movement in April to fix all of these roads, but no. You derive pleasure in making life unbearable for the people. China built a 1,000 bed standard hospital in about two weeks or so, but una wan use three months fix a less than 1km road... I know God will have mercy on us in this country one day sha

Good job

Since last year the tanker inferno affected that bridge. More traffic suffering on that route.

Na now morning come. After 10 years.

Who is this one abeg?

Long overdue

These sanwo olu govt is the most confused govt i have ever seen, how can you be reconstructing different roads at the same time, finish one first na, and jump unto the next, or create inner routes one can follow, just cursing more heavy traffic, while hoodlums rob private car owners in traffic.

WHICH DIVERSION AFTER THE ROAD ALMOST READY TO BE USED
