Lagos to Partially Close Lekki–Ajah Corridor for Eight Months of Road Repairs.
The Lagos State Government has announced plans to partially close sections of the Lekki–Ajah corridor for eight months to facilitate major rehabilitation and improvement works aimed at easing traffic congestion.
Commissioner for Transportation, Oluwaseun Osiyemi, revealed this in a statement on Wednesday, stating that the project will run from Saturday, November 15, 2025, to Wednesday, July 15, 2026.
Osiyemi explained that the rehabilitation, which has already begun with preliminary works, will be executed in two phases to minimize disruption.
According to him, the first phase will cover seven sections, during which one lane will be closed while the other remains open to motorists. Once repairs on the first lane are completed, construction will shift to the opposite side.
“Motorists heading toward Lekki and Ajah will continue to have access throughout the construction,” he assured.
For the second phase, vehicles moving from Ajah toward Lekki will be diverted to one lane while work continues on the other. “When the first lane is completed, work will shift to the second. At all times, movement toward Ajah will remain open,” Osiyemi added.
The commissioner noted that some sections of the corridor will experience partial closures during the entire project period.
He appealed to motorists and residents to remain patient and cooperate with traffic officials. “We urge road users to obey traffic officers and follow diversion signs as directed. These repairs are part of the Lagos State Government’s commitment to improving road infrastructure and ensuring safer, smoother journeys for everyone,” he said.
