The Lagos State Traffic Management Agency (LASTMA) has threatened to clamp down on traders who obstruct free flow of traffic at the Ladipo market, on the Oshodi-Apapa expressway corridor.
The expressway is currently undergoing road reconstruction as the Oshodi-bound route is closed to traffic, with motorists plying the service lane.
The usual congestion on the road due to the road rehabilitation is compounded by trading and trucks maneuvering to access Ladipo market and OK Foods at the Toyota Bus Stop.
Reacting to The Guardian report on Monday, the spokesman of the agency, Mr Olumide Filade, said, “We were at that location twice two weeks ago, on Tuesday, May 26 and Friday, May 29 to evacuate all vehicles that were parked unlawfully along the road. We will have a repeat of the action to restore order and free flow of traffic in that area. (Guardian)
