The Nigerian Ports Authority, NPA, has introduced various measures to address the endemic vehicular gridlock in Apapa, its acting Managing Director, Mr Mohammed Bello-Koko, has said.
A statement by Olaseni Alakija, general manager, Corporate and Strategic Communications, quoted the NPA as outlining the measures in a TV breakfast show in Lagos.
It quoted Mr Bello-Koko as saying that the increasing deployment of the electronic call-up infrastructure for cargo trucks, popularly known as ‘Eto’, launched in February, had greatly resolved the Apapa vehicular gridlock.
Five months after assuming office as the acting managing director, the incremental deployment of the electronic call-up infrastructure for cargo trucks, known as ‘Eto’, launched in February has, to a large extent, resolved the Apapa vehicular gridlock.
The authority keeps reviewing and improving on the system.
“While the authority is not unmindful of the pains of Apapa residents, what remains is to address the gridlock caused by the failed portion, along the Mile 2 to Tin-Can Port road.
“As soon as the entire stretch of the Tin-Can Port highway is completed, the perennial gridlock within Apapa will be completely eliminated.
After this, the NPA will fully deploy the ‘Eto’ call-up infrastructure, for trucks along the Tin-Can Port corridor,” he said.
Debunking insinuations that the ‘Eto’ system had been compromised, the NPA boss explained that a comprehensive review of the system had been done.
