The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) in Ogun has cautioned motorists plying the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway against violating traffic rules.
The Sector Commander, Mr Ahmed Umar gave the warning in a chart with pressmen in Ota on Sunday.
He expressed worry that some motorists plying the expressway violated the one-way restriction.
”This attitude is causing heavy traffic jam on the road, causing road users to spend long hours on the road.
”Route violation by motorists not only causes traffic jams, it makes our work more difficult.
”We urge motorists to desist from driving against the traffic. They should avoid route violation and strictly obey traffic rules,” he said.
He said that accidents and gridlock could be avoided if motorists and other road users obeyed traffic rules.
”The ongoing construction work by Julius Berger is actually affecting traffic flow on the expressway. We don’t have to compound it.
”Motorists need to be patient. The road has been demarcated and the lanes narrowed.
”We need patience and cooperation with FRSC personnel for effective traffic flow,” he said.
