The Lagos State government has postponed the electronic call-up system for trucks on the Lekki-Epe corridor.
The state Commissioner for Transportation, Oluwaseun Osiyemi, announced the postponement in a statement on Friday in Lagos.

The e-call-up system on the Lekki-Epe corridor was billed to commence on August 1.
The initiative is to ensure seamless traffic flow on the Lekki-Epe corridor.

“This is in order to give adequate room for full compliance,” he said.
Mr Osiyemi urged all stakeholders to seize the opportunity to ramp up full preparation in readiness for the successful takeoff of the technology-driven solution of truck movement on the Lekki-Epe corridor.
