The Lagos State Government has announced the partial closure of Eko Bridge for emergency repairs, starting from June 4 to August 13, 2021.
The state Commissioner for Transportation, Dr Frederic Oladeinde, said in a statement that the repair of the Eko Bridge, from Costain to Alaka in-bound National Stadium, was necessary to complete the rehabilitation works at the opposite side of the bridge earlier embarked upon by the Federal Government.
He said that pending the commencement of the rehabilitation works, alternative routes have been made available for the awareness of motorists, to manage traffic during the period of repairs as highlighted below;
Motorists are to take alternative routes during the period of repairs.
“Motorists can gain access to Apongbon through CMS Outer Marina Road to connect Ebute Metta Ikorodu Road to access their destinations.
“Motorists from Apongbon can pass through CMS to Outer Marina to Adeniji Adele, Third Mainland Bridge, Adekunle to Herbert Macaulay Way, Jibowu and Ikorodu road will also be available,” Oladeinde said.
Oladeinde asked motorists to take note of the diversion routes and comply with directives from the State’s Traffic Management Personnel.
The commissioner urged motorists to bear the inconveniences, as the project was aimed at achieving a “seamless, safe and efficient transport system that would meet the transportation needs of a larger population.”
