Lagos State Government has launched two transformative initiatives designed to reorganize traffic governance and restore environmental sanctity across the metropolis.
In a bid to guarantee seamless traffic flow, the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) has formally instituted a 24-hour operational framework for traffic management and enforcement across Lagos State.
Lagos State Government also executed a comprehensive clearance operation along Apapa Road, Coastain, and the Ijora under Bridge, eliminating illegal structures, shanties, and unregulated trading that had long obstructed free vehicular flow and compromised public safety.
During the operation, enforcement teams uncovered an illegal diesel dumping site and impounded substantial quantities of expired plantain chips and cheese balls, stored under unsanitary conditions, a testament to the government’s prioritization of public health and environmental integrity.
