As part of the current administration’s mandate to provide adequate and quality road infrastructure for the citizenry, the Lagos State Government will divert traffic on Otto Wharf Road for a planned rehabilitation on Mba Cardoso Street in Ajeromi-Ifelodun Local Government Area.
A statement signed by the Commissioner for Transportation, Dr. Frederic Oladeinde, disclosed that the first phase of the project commenced on Apapa-Oworonshoki Expressway Junction to Ajegunle Primary School, Awodi-Ora section and will last a duration of four months.
He urged motorists to comply with alternative traffic arrangements provided, assuring that the Traffic Management Personnel will be available to minimise inconveniences that may be experienced while the construction work lasts.
According to him, motorists heading to Mba Cardoso from Apapa-Oworonshoki Expressway will be diverted to Kirikiri Road to connect Wilmer Junction to Okito Street to link Olorunshogo and Achakpo Street.
Similarly, motorists from Mile 2 will be diverted to Mile 2 bridge ramp to connect Signal Barracks and Suru Alaba to link Ojo Road and subsequently, Baale Street to access Ifelodun Local Government and Mba Street.
The Commissioner added that alternatively, road users can also connect Oyedeji Street and Babani Street through Ojo Road to reach their desired destinations.
While imploring residents, especially motorists in the axis, to utilise the suggested alternatives during the period, Oladeinde asserted that the project is aimed at achieving a seamless system that will meet the transportation need of the citizens in Lagos State.
