Lagos impounds 40 illegally parked trailers under Costain flyover bridge

Operatives of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA), yesterday, impounded 40 trailers, trucks and tankers parked illegally under Costain flyover bridges in the Iganmu area of Lagos.
   
General Manager, LASTMA, Bolaji Oreagba, said the enforcement led by the Director of Operations (headquarters), Peter Gbedemeje,  was carried out immediately after the expiration of a ‘seven-day removal order” served on them.
 
Oreagba disclosed that the level of voluntary compliance was encouraging as majority had removed their heavy duty vehicles before the commencement of the enforcement operations.
 

The Head of Operations, Peter Gbedemeje, said the cleanup exercise would be continuous and extended to other parts of the state to checkmate criminal activities.
 
He confirmed that owners/drivers of the impounded trailers would be charged to court accordingly.
