The Abule Egba Flyover is a direct response by the Governor Akinwunmi Ambode administration in Lagos State to address the perennial traffic gridlock often associated with the area especially during rush hour.
The construction of the Bridge, which is scheduled to be completed in 2017, is at advanced stage, while residents and commuters are hopeful that upon completion, it would permanently reduce traffic to the barest minimum.
Much as the Ambode administration which has become synonymous with creative solutions to traffic gridlock across the metropolis, the several initiatives have also seen tremendous improvement on the aesthetics of the road infrastructure especially with modern bus shelters, lay-bys, segregated bus parks, barricades, slip roads among others.
