The Lagos State Government says traffic will be diverted at Ikeja Along Bus Stop, between Ile Zik and Conoil Petrol Station on the Oshodi bound lane from Saturday, 17th to Sunday, 18th August 2024, between 12 midnight and 4 am daily.
Lagos State Commissioner for Transportation, Oluwaseun Osiyemi, in a statement on Thursday, said the diversion is to carry out the demolition of the old pedestrian bridge.
“Consequently, from Ile Zik Bus Stop up to Conoil Petrol Filling Station on the Oshodi bound side of the road, only one lane will be available to Motorists to ensure safety,” he said.
Osiyemi further explained that the traffic diversion will not affect motorists on the Dopemu/Abule Egba bound side of the road during the demolition.
The commissioner added that the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority, (LASTMA) will be on the ground to manage vehicular movement and minimise inconveniences.
He called for the cooperation of the motoring public, adding that the lanes will be cordoned off with jersey barriers and protective nets to keep motorists and commuters safe during the period of the demolition.
