**Lekki-Epe Expressway Closure: What You Need to Know** Imagine embarking on a long journey to Epe or Ibeju-Lekki, only to hit a roadblock. The Lagos State Government has announced a total closure of the Epe-bound carriageway of the Lekki-Ajah Expressway from Admiralty Way Junction to Jubilee Bridge, Ajah, to facilitate rehabilitation works. This move is expected to cause some inconvenience, but officials assure that measures have been put in place to minimize disruptions. Motorists heading to Epe or Ibeju-Lekki will now be diverted to the Lagos-bound carriageway, with lanes allocated to cater to peak periods. During the morning peak (5:00 a.m. - 10:00 a.m.), two lanes will serve Lagos-bound traffic, while one lane will serve Epe-bound traffic. In the evening and night peak (3:00 p.m. - 3:00 a.m.), the setup will be reversed. Drivers are advised to use the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road as an alternative route whenever possible. To ensure smooth traffic flow, officials from the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority and other personnel will be deployed along the corridor. A tow truck will be stationed on-site to provide swift response to breakdowns and emergencies. At night, partial closures and restricted traffic flow will be enforced at strategic intersections to facilitate asphalt laying operations. The rehabilitation works will be executed in phases, with each segment taking a specific number of days to complete. The government has outlined a phased implementation timeline, which includes the closure of all intersections along the corridor for eight hours at night during asphalt laying operations. While this closure may cause some inconvenience, officials are working tirelessly to ensure that the works are completed efficiently and that traffic movement is minimally disrupted. Motorists are advised to plan their journeys accordingly and follow the instructions of traffic management personnel to ensure a safe and smooth journey.
