The Lagos State Government has announced that the rehabilitation of the Lekki-Epe Expressway will commence on January 25, 2026, and is expected to last for 64 days. The project will involve the rehabilitation of a 20km stretch of the expressway, from Admiralty to Jubilee Bridge, and will be executed in eight sections to minimize disruptions.
To manage traffic, the Lagos-bound carriageway will be closed in segments, while traffic will be diverted to the Epe-bound carriageway using a dynamic lane-sharing system. Motorists are advised to use alternative routes, including the Coastal Road from Ogombo via Abraham Adesanya or a connecting route from Eleganza through Orchid Road, Lafiaji, and Naale Street.
The project aims to improve road durability, safety, and commuter experience along the critical transport corridor. Adequate traffic management personnel, directional signage, sufficient illumination, and road safety measures will be deployed throughout the project duration.
