FG Suspends Works On Lagos-Ibadan Exp. Over Persistent Traffic Gridlock

By Monsurudeen Olowoopejo

August 28, 2022

Following persistent gridlock experienced around Berger end of the Lagos-Ibadan expressway, the Federal Government has suspended construction works on the road to proffer solutions for easing traffic.

It said that the suspension was for 24 hours to identify and implement traffic solutions that could reduce travel time on the road.

According to the government, the Federal Ministry of Works has concluded plans with the contractor to suspend the works for today, Saturday 27th August, 2022 in order to plan and make provisions for required improvements in traffic management on the road.

The government, meanwhile, has apologized to motorists experiencing difficulties moving in and out of Lagos and Ogun States, assuring that all necessary measures would be made to improve traffic management on the road.

In a statement on Saturday by the Acting Federal Controller of Works, Lagos, Forosola Oloyede, the apex government apologised for the hardship being faced by road users due to construction works on the Berger-Opic axis of the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.

The government noted that it was aware of the traffic gridlock due to the ongoing reconstruction works on the expressway and feels the pains of the people, especially residents of Lagos and Ogun States who are at the receiving end of the inconveniences due to the gridlock.

Motorists plying the axis have continued to spend long hours in gridlock daily, a situation with the hardship getting worse in the last three days.

The apex government promised that the government would make necessary improvements in the traffic management system on the road in order to alleviate the suffering of the road users.

“To this end, the Federal Ministry of Works has concluded plans with the contractor to suspend the works for today Saturday 27th August, 2022 in order to plan and make provisions for required improvements in traffic management on the road”.

The federal government said the highway under construction bears daily heavy vehicular volume and the contractor managed the traffic through dedicated diversions while carrying on construction works.

It appealed to all road users to cooperate with the contractor and Traffic Management Officers towards the free flow of traffic throughout the construction period.

While urging motorists to adhere to safety rules on the road, the government cautioned them to desist from driving against traffic and obey all dedicated road diversions along the road, in order to prevent unnecessary delays on the road.

“There is also provision for tow trucks along the road should in case of any breakdown, road users should be patient by not driving against traffic and obeying stationed road traffic officers in order to allow for free flow of traffic.

“In conclusion, it is a known fact, that there is no pain without gain, it is thus our utmost belief that the general public would be the ultimate beneficiaries of the world-class road infrastructure that the government plans to deliver through the ongoing reconstruction works on the road. We, therefore, appeal for the cooperation of the general public towards this end”.
