The Lagos City 42 kilometers marathon coming up on Saturday which will host world athletes will start from the National Stadium, Surelere and ends at the Eko Atlantic.
At a press briefing on preparation for the event, the State’s Acting
Commissioner for Transportation, Olarenwaju Elegushi, called on
residents to support the government for the successful hosting of the
event.
According to him, traffic will be restricted on the day of the event
adding that alternative routes have been created for motorists.
“It is our plan to mount and deploy adequate traffic diversion signs
and personnel to monitor and montage traffic. The routes will be open as
soon the last runner leaves each point to ensure the traffic is not
held for too long,” Elegushi said.
The government has assured Lagos residents that they are committed to ensure that their programmes will not be impaired during the event.
