Gridlock fears as repair work on Kara Bridge begins today
The Federal Government says it will commence repair works on the Ogun-bound lane of the Kara Bridge along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway effective Sunday, September 3, 2022.
The Lagos State Commissioner for Transportation, Frederic Oladeinde, in a statement, said he received a notification from the Federal Ministry of Works on the ongoing reconstruction works along the Berger-OPIC Axis of the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway Project for an emergency fixing of the expansion joints that got damaged.
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.
