Oladeinde said the state government would collaborate with the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA), and the Ogun State Traffic Compliance and Enforcement Corps to provide adequate diversion and effective traffic management systems during the period of the repair works.

He advised the general public to drive with caution along this route during the period of the repair and exercise patience, adding that interventions will be put in place to minimize inconveniences.

Oladeinde appealed for the cooperation of the general public with the stationed traffic control Officers by adhering to traffic laws and regulations to prevent avoidable gridlock and ensure a free and steady flow of traffic while the repair works last.
