The Federal Ministry of Works has announced partial closure of sections of the Ikorodu-Sagamu Road from Monday to facilitate the completion of ongoing reconstruction works.
The Federal Controller of Works in Ogun
State, Mr Olayiwola Komolafe, made this known in a statement on Saturday.
He said the closure followed a directive
by the Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, ordering the contractor, Messrs Arab
Contractors, to resume work on critical sections of the highway to ensure
prompt delivery of the project.
According to Komolafe, the affected
sections are the stretch from Ikorodu Roundabout to Sabo Junction in Lagos, and
from Cement to Coca-Cola inward Sagamu.
Komolafe said that traffic from Ikorodu
to Sagamu would be diverted through the construction corridors under a
counterflow arrangement.
He said the construction would last for
three months to allow the execution of works and curing of the rigid pavement.
The controller said that officers of the
Lagos State Traffic Management Authority would be deployed to manage traffic
during the period specially.
He appealed to motorists to cooperate
with traffic managers and law enforcement officers.
Komolafe said the ministry regretted any
inconvenience the reconstruction work might cause to road users.
