In commencement of repair works scheduled from Wednesday, December 4, 2024, to Tuesday, February 25, 2025, the Lagos State Government has announced a traffic diversion on the Marine Bridge to facilitate.

The announcement was made by the Commissioner for Transportation, Oluwaseun Osiyemi, on Sunday, urging the public to exercise patience during the rehabilitation period.

Osiyemi stressed that the diversion is part of a traffic management plan designed to facilitate the Federal Ministry of Works’ rehabilitation of the road’s asphalt pavement.

“Motorists are implored to be patient, as this measure aims to ensure smooth operations during the repair works,” Osiyemi stated.

Motorists are advised to link Costain Roundabout to access Eko Bridge, then connect Ijora Causeway and proceed to the ramp through the U-turn to link Iddo.

Another option is to link Ijora 7Up via Marine Bridge, access Ijora Causeway through Ijora Oloye, and connect to Iddo.
