LAGOS CBD DISLODGES COMMERCIAL DRIVERS, TRADERS ON CARTER BRIDGE

Following the vacation notice issued to all occupants of bridges in the State, operatives of the Lagos Central Business Districts have dislodged commercial drivers and traders constituting a menace on Carter Bridge.

Reacting to the removal exercise, the Special Adviser on Central Business Districts (CBD), Mrs. Bola Olumegbon Lawal noted that the dislodgement of traders and vehicles parked on the bridge is essential to restoring order on the roads and enhancing the well-being of residents around the axis.

Olumegbon stated that the Agency will not tolerate the practice of commercial drivers using the Carter and Apongbon bridges as their loading bay and traders displaying their wares for sale thereby preventing the free flow of traffic and endangering the structural stability of the bridge.

The Special Adviser also cautioned vehicle owners and traders to desist from parking and trading on all bridges while warning that defaulters would have their vehicles impounded.

Meanwhile, the Agency has also intensified the removal of all makeshift shops and iron kiosks erected on walkways and drainage alignments within the Island Business District.

The clean-up exercise which started last week is already improving the aesthetics of the Lagos Island Business District.
