The Federal Road Safety Corps is collaborating with the Nigeria Police Force, especially the Anambra and Delta states commands towards reducing
traffic gridlock on the two Niger bridges linking Onitsha and Asaba major corridor.
Part of the interventions to be put in place include; removal of all checkpoints at the Head Bridge from December 18, 2024 to January 10, 2025, establishment of mobile surveillance at the Second Bridge axis, dismantling of all police checkpoints on the Delta side of the Old Niger Bridge to facilitate free traffick flow, as well as adequate deployment of officers for joint traffic control on the two bridges during the yuletide season.
The FRSC Corps Marshal, Shehu Mohammed while applauding the Sector Commander for the synergy, stated that the collaboration will strengthen the resolve of the Corps towards achieving safety and ease of movement for all road users on the Niger bridges during the festive period.
