In a press statement signed by Abubakar Sani, Special Assistant, Media to the FCT Minister, the Director of Engineering Services, Federal Capital Development Authority, FCDA, Engr. Shehu Hadi Ahmad, who made this disclosure in Abuja yesterday, said the road closure will begin today, Wednesday to enable full rehabilitation work on the outbound lane to be done.
He said there will be traffic diversion to the inbound lane which will now be used in dual traffic mode by motorists while repair work lasts on the other lane.
Ahmad said FCDA officials in reflective jackets will attend to inquiries, tow broken down vehicles and direct traffic flow, among others, so as to avoid traffic congestion on the road.
He called on motorists and other road users to cooperate with the contractor handling the reconstruction work and officials of the FCDA, adding that the officials will always be on the ground to provide assistance to road users whenever the need arises.
