Apapa gridlock: We didn’t shut down Eto Call-up operations at Lagos port complex — TTP
Operators of the Eto call-up system for trucks accessing Nigerian Ports, Truck Transit Park (TTP), have faulted news reports that it has suspended trucking activities at the Lagos Port Complex, due to the resurgence of traffic gridlock at the Apapa port.
Spokesperson for the company, Nancy Nnamdi in statement clarified that siince its inception, the Ètò callup system has operated seamlessly, uninterrupted and outperforming even global standards.
Nancy assured that the Eto System responds according to the traffic conditions of the port access and port terminal requests.
“As Nigeria’s first digital traffic management company, we are proud of TTP’s reputation for stability, innovation, and excellence.
“As a digital traffic and mobility management company, TTP collaborates closely with the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) to monitor port activity and advise transporters regarding the categories of trucks permitted at the ports.
“This system is designed to be agile and responsive: Ètò is automated to adjust the release of trucks in response to road traffic conditions and port terminal requests.
“This process ensures the system remains perpetually available while restricting the movement of trucks in line with established standard operating procedures, enabling efficient, real-time management of port access, ensuring smooth, coordinated traffic flow and mitigating congestion.
“TTP routinely communicates these updates to stakeholders through our various channels. Our system’s continued operation and reliability underscore its effectiveness and critical role in managing port logistics, making Ètò a pioneering example in digital traffic solutions, now under study in institutions across Nigeria and internationally.
“Numerous private and public entities are now subscribing to TTP’s services as they recognise our technology’s value and underlying principles.
“We encourage all stakeholders to adhere to the standard operating procedures of the call-up system to facilitate seamless operations and we remain committed to assisting our customers with any concerns they may have. TTP is proud to contribute to a more efficient and sustainable logistics ecosystem in Nigeria,” Nancy said in a statement.
