The Commissioner for Transportation, @dr_oladeinde, stated that the total closure of the bridge for 24 hours is to enable the contractors remove heavy equipment used during the rehabilitation and allow the full reopening of the Oworonshoki and Adeniji bound lanes to traffic.
The Commissioner, therefore, advised motorists coming from Ogudu, Alapere and Gbagada to use Ikorodu Road, Jibowu and Yaba as alternative routes.
