Lagos Begins Construction Work On Creek Road, Apapa

LAGOS – To maintain an effective transportation system across the Lagos Metropolis, the Lagos State government has announced the temporary closure of Creek Road, from Mr. Biggs to Warehouse Road junction, in Apapa from Friday, May 8, 2020, to Friday, May 15, 2020, for the resumption of the on-going construction by HITECH.

A statement issued at the weekend by the state Ministry of Transportation, advised motorists going to Liverpool/Tin Can Ports from Wharfgate to make a diversion at Eleganza to connect Warehouse Road for further access to Trebor, while Marine Road, Oduduwa Road, Park Lane, Central, and North Avenue will be available for motorists leaving the Tin-can Port area in Apapa.

It stated further that the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) would deploy its personnel to manage and control traffic along the construction corridor, the road diversion axis, intersections, and junctions, to minimise any inconvenience likely to result from the construction work. Imploring motorists, residents and road users to cooperate with LASTMA officials deployed to the area to manage the traffic situation, the government reiterated its determination to provide a seamless multi-modal transport system that would meet the transportation need of its large population.
