The Lagos State Government has announced a temporal closure on the Nigerian Breweries level crossing, to facilitate ongoing construction on the Lagos-Ibadan railway.
The City’s Transportation Commissioner, Dr. Frederic Oladeinde, made this disclosure in a statement issued via the official Twitter account of the Lagos State Government.
The Breweries level crossing will be closed from 10:00 pm on Friday, 18th to 4:00 am on Monday, 21st of December, 2020, to allow contractors to continue construction works ongoing at the rail tracks.
The closure would enable China Civil Engineering Construction Company (CCECC) Nigeria Limited, the Construction Company in charge of the Modernization Project, to continue another round of construction work at the Breweries Level Crossing, as a follow up to the recent Gaskiya/Badia track laying work.
Oladeinde implored motorists to utilize the Iganmu Bridge from Nigerian Breweries to connect Eric Moore inwards Abebe Village, through Eric Moore Junction during the period, to facilitate easy movement and traffic flow within the state.
However, traffic management personnel as well as road signals, will be available to aid motorists’ movement and minimize inconveniences that may be experienced during the period.
