motorists coming from Funso Williams Avenue enroute Apapa Road/Iganmu to Apapa
to make use of Alaka to Eric Moore to Abebe Village (Nigerian Breweries) and
continue the journey, while those heading to Lagos Island from Funso Williams
can connect through Eko Bridge from Ijora Olopa or Apongbon.
The statement reads: ”Those
heading to Lagos Island from Orile can use Iganmu Road to connect Eko Bridge
through Costain. Motorists coming from Lagos Island that have no business in
Costain and its environs can make use of Eko Bridge to Funso Williams Avenue.
“Those using Costain Roundabout,
