The Lagos State Government said it has reached a consensus with the Nigerian Port Authority NPA in streamlining check points along the corridors and feeder routes to eliminate gridlock and curb illegal extortion along Apapa/Tincan axis.
The Special Adviser to the Governor on Transportation, Oluwatoyin Fayinka, makes the disclosure at a Stakeholders’ meeting with Transport Unions in Lagos.
Fayinka said that the State Government would enforce zero tolerance on illegal extortions and activities of miscreants along the corridor through Special Mobile Courts created to address the challenges.
He explained that in streamlining the corridor, illegal extortion points would be sacked as the agencies charged with the role of managing traffic flow along the axis have been clearly defined.
Fayinka said that the traffic manager responsible was assigned to prevent any illegal activity that could hinder the smooth port operations for all Stakeholders.
