Lagos — Lagos State Traffic Management Authority, LASTMA,  has unfolded new plans to manage traffic gridlocks in the state, just as it deployed more officers to traffic prone areas aimed at ensuring  safety on Lagos  roads.

LASTMA General Manager,  Babatunde Edu, spoke  at Ogudu Ori Oke Area of Kosofe Local Government during the traffic management exercise,  tagged “Operation’ unlock the gridlock,’a renewed approach to manage traffic, especially in the traffic –prone areas.”.
According to Edu: “It is part of the year’s agenda to unlock all the gridlock in the metropolis.

The ongoing construction works should not be an excuse for any motorist to cause traffic, we all have to sacrifice and be disciplined while using the road.

That is one of the reasons we are out to control traffic in the places where road and drainage constructions are ongoing.
