The Federal Government through the Federal Ministry of Works says rehabilitation work on the Adeniji Adele – Falomo road will commence on Monday, May 13.

The Federal Controller of Works, Lagos, Korede Kesha, announced this in a statement on Saturday in Lagos.

She said that Adeniji Adele – Falomo road would be progressively closed in sections for rehabilitation work, from Falomo roundabout to Adeniji Adele (both bounds).

She said that one section would be fully repaired and reopened to traffic before work begins on the next section.

Mrs Kesha said that motorists would be diverted to nearby streets to access alternative routes during the closure.

She said that the first section closed would be from Glover Junction to Falomo, urging motorists to use alternative routes.

Mrs Kesha thanked the public for their cooperation, stressing that traffic management officials would be deployed to minimise inconvenience during construction.

She, therefore, emphasised the federal government’s commitment to improving road infrastructure.

The Federal Government in April announced that resurfacing work on the Third Mainland Bridge would commence from Adeniji inward Falomo, to restore the integrity and aesthetics of the bridges.

The project, which is an extension of the original plan, will continue where it left off on the Third Mainland Bridge.
