The Ogun Government has directed the Reynoids Construction Company(RCC) to provide palliative measure for Ososa multiple bridges to avoid re-occurence of vehicles plunging into the river
The State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun issues this directive as a way of staving off preventable death on the bridges.
Abiodun spoke on Friday through Mr Seni Ogunyemi,the Corps Commander of Traffic Compliance and Enforcement Corps (TRACE),on Friday.
It would be recalled that some vehicles plunged into the Ososa river in the course of the week, killing all the commuters.
The State stressed the need for motorists to take all necessary safety measures to avoid unnecessary accidents on the Sagamu-Ijebu Ode Expressway.
"The motorists should ensure that their vehicles were in good condition and place C-Caution conspicuously when their vehicles had fault to avoid crashes," the TRACE Commander said.
The Governor further directed all TRACE operatives to be 24 hour on duty in case of any emergency.
He added that the presence of the operatives should be felt in most construction areas like Owode-Ijako,Odeda area,Ogijo,Ibafo, Ososa, among others.
He also said that the Ososa bridge on Sagamu-Ijebu Ode Expressway should be strictly monitored to avoid vehicles plunging into the river.
The Governor said TRACE personnel are also to be with construction companies at their different locations to ease the flow of traffic.
The traffic situation in the State has become chaotic lately due to rehabilitation works going on across the State.
