The Federal Road Safety Corps has announced the temporary close down of the Lagos/Ibadan express way from November 3rd to November 12th to enable repairs of damaged sections of the vital road.
The reconstruction project will be handled by Julius Berger
The FRSC Sector Commander in Ogun State, Mr Clement Oladele made this announcement while speaking with NAN on Thursday.
“There will be temporary closure by Julius Berger Nigeria (JBN) of a section of the Ibadan/Lagos corridor by Sagamu Interchange from Thursday, Nov. 3 to Saturday Nov. 12 to effect repair,’’ he said.
He urged road users to cooperate with the FRSC to ensure the successful and smooth running of the project.
“Motorists should exercise caution and adhere to traffic rules; cooperate with the FRSC and other traffic officers who will ensure minimal discomfort of motorists during the period.
He also assured road users that traffic signs have been made on appropriate routes to follow and traffic controllers will be on ground to control the flow of traffic as the project goes on.
With barely a few weeks to the Christmas celebration and projected volume of traffic on this major road during the festive period, this is certainly a move in the right direction.
