Lagos to close Abule Nla, Brewery level crossing for construction

IN line with the Nigerian Railway Modernisation Project (Lagos-Ibadan section) with extension to the Ports at Apapa, the Lagos State Government will close down Abule Nla and Brewery Level Crossings for construction on the rail track from 9:30pm on Friday March 12, to  6:00am Saturday March 13th.

 A statement from the Ministry of Transportation disclosed that the Construction Company, China Civil Engineering Construction Company (CCECC) Nigeria Limited, would commence the Track Stress Dispersion on the level crossings, hence the need for the closure.

As a result of the ongoing construction on the aforementioned routes, the Costain Bridge will be opened to all motorists to serve as alternative route to aid movements to their various destinations.

Road users are therefore advised to comply with the State’s Traffic Management Personnel directions and road signals to minimise inconveniences that may be experienced while the construction work lasts.

The Lagos State Government is hereby appealing to residents of the state, especially motorists that ply these corridors to bear the pains, as the project is aimed at achieving a seamless Multi Modal Transport System that will meet the transportation needs of a larger population.
