LAGOS State Government has approved the construction of flyover bridges for two of the state’s high-density traffic zones – Ajah roundabout and Abule Egba junction. The two major projects were approved by the.....
State’s Executive Council and have been duly awarded to contractors.
In a statement yesterday by Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr. Steve Ayorinde, the projects will be completed within 16 months.
The statement said the construction of the reinforced concrete flyover and signalized intersection at Ajah roundabout will be undertaken simultaneously with the rehabilitation of Freedom Road in Lekki, with a view to reducing the heavy traffic being recorded at the roundabout and the Lekki/Ikoyi axis.
The commissioner said the Ajah Bridge would have a solar-powered signalised intersection to improve traffic, while the upgrade of Freedom Road is expected to ease traffic considerably for vehicles using the Third Roundabout to connect Lekki through Admiralty Way.
While the Ajah project will ease movement of residents and commuters on the Lagos Island – Ibeju Lekki areas, the construction of the reinforced concrete dual-carriage flyover bridge at Abule Egba junction will equally bring joy and relief to millions of commuters that use the Lagos -Abeokuta Expressway in Ifako-Ijaye Local Government Area of the state when completed.
