The Lagos State Government has urged residents in Lekki Phase I, Phase II and its environs to open all Street Gates located in the area during this yuletide season.
Lagos State Commissioner for Transportation, Oluwaseun Osiyemi, in a statement said the gates should be opened from 6.00 am to 11.00 pm daily.
Osiyemi stated that the directive was necessary for the ease of movement of vehicular traffic with a view to reducing traffic congestion that may arise due to the holidays.
“By opening the gate, seamless and convenient movement can be made possible during this period for residents and visitors.
“It is important to note that strict compliance is necessary as contravention of this directive will warrant sanctions from the State Government.“
The Commissioner assured residents of the necessary architecture for the safety and security of all and sundry.
