Lagos-Ibadan road: FG to open Kara bridge on Sunday, reveals date for closure of other section
The Federal Controller of Works, Lagos, Adedamola Kuti, has said the barricade around Kara Bridge inward Lagos would be removed on Sunday, December 1 to ease the traffic situation around that axis of the Lagos-Ibadan expressway.
Kuti told The Punch on Saturday that construction work had been completed on that part of the road.
According to him, when the contractors return to the site in January, construction work will commence on the outbound-Lagos traffic side of the road.
“Now that inbound has been completed, we don’t want to start work on the outbound and leave it halfway, so we decided to open the road to commuters tomorrow, Sunday, so that people can move freely this Christmas,” Kuti said.
