**Traffic Alert for Lagos Motorists: Lekki-Epe Expressway Closure** If you're a regular commuter from Lagos to Epe or vice versa, you've probably heard the buzz about the partial closure of the Lekki-Ajah Expressway. Yes, you read that right - partial closure! The Lagos State Government has announced a complete shutdown of the Epe-bound carriageway from Admiralty Way Junction to Jubilee Bridge, Ajah. But don't panic, folks. This is part of the ongoing rehabilitation works aimed at making our roads safer and more efficient. According to officials, the closure is necessary to enable uninterrupted construction works on the corridor. To manage the expected traffic congestion, the government has come up with a clever plan. During peak periods, Lagos-bound traffic will be diverted to the Lagos-bound carriageway, while Epe-bound traffic will be restricted to one lane. Yes, it might seem a bit complicated, but trust the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) to keep things running smoothly. For those who plan to drive during peak hours, here's a quick rundown: During the morning rush (5 am to 10 am), two lanes will cater to Lagos-bound traffic, while one lane will be reserved for Epe-bound traffic. In the evening and night (3 pm to 3 am), the reverse will be true - two lanes will serve Epe-bound traffic, while one lane will cater to Lagos-bound traffic. And if you're not too fond of waiting in traffic, you can always take the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road as an alternative route. The good news is that officials are working around the clock to ensure a seamless traffic flow. LASTMA personnel and other traffic management experts will be stationed along the corridor to keep things moving. Plus, a tow truck will be on standby to respond quickly to any breakdowns or emergencies. So, while the closure might be a bit of an inconvenience, it's all part of the bigger plan to make our roads safer and more efficient. Stay safe, Lagos!
