FRSC diverts traffic on Lagos-Ibadan expressway

The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has announced a fresh diversion of traffic on the Lagos-Ibadan expressway over the ongoing rehabilitation and reconstruction works on the highway.

This was contained in a statement issued by the Corps Public Education Officer (CPEO), Assistant Corps Marshal Bisi Kazeem, on Monday, June 19.

Kazeem stated the traffic has been diverted from the road linking the expressway at New Garage in Lagos in continuation of the ongoing rehabilitation of the Lagos-Ibadan expressway.

He said the traffic from Isheri Olowora passing through River Valley Estate was to link the ever-busy expressway.

The FRSC official added: “Inward Lagos has been diverted to pass through Babcock College, opposite Enyo filling station to link the expressway and drive into Lagos.

“Alternatively, they could pass through Ojodu and make u-turn in front of FRSC Ojodu to link the expressways at BRT Bus-Stop.”

Kazeem quoted the FRSC Corps Marshal, Dauda Biu, as directing the corps commands along the corridor to ensure that hardship on commuters arising from the diversion was minimised.

Biu also enjoined the motorists along the route to exercise patience and cooperate with the law enforcement agencies on the route.
