The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has announced a fresh traffic diversion on the Lagos-Ibadan expressway due to the ongoing construction on the highway.

This is contained in a statement by FRSC spokesman Bisi Kazeem on Monday, stating that the traffic had been diverted from linking the expressway at New Garage Lagos.

It said the traffic from Isheri Olowora passing through River Valley Estate was to link the expressway.

“Inward Lagos has been diverted to pass through Babcock College, opposite Enyo filling station, to link the expressway and drive into Lagos. Alternatively, they could pass through Ojodu and make a U-turn in front of FRSC Ojodu to link the expressways at BRT Bus-stop,” said the FRSC.

The statement added that its corps marshal, Dauda Biu, directed the FRSC commands along the corridor to ensure that gridlock arising from diversion is minimised.

Mr Biu also urged the motorists along the route to exercise maximum patience and cooperate with the law enforcement agencies on the routes.
