Yuletide: LASTMA deploys more personnel, equipment across Lagos

The Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) said it had deployed more personnel, patrol and tow vehicles to strategic locations across the State in ensuring unimpeded flow of traffic.

The General Manager of LASTMA Mr Olalekan Bakare, disclosed in a statement in Lagos on Saturday.

Bakare said that the agency was dedicated in ensuring free-flow of traffic and prompt response to any infraction that could by any means extend the journey time of motorists.

He admonished the motoring public to make use of the State Emergency toll – free numbers ‘112 & 767’ or call any of the LASTMA hotlines (08100565860, 08129928503 & 08129928515) for prompt intervention in case of any road emergencies across the State.

Bakare warned motorists against non-use of seat-belt, overloading, speeding, use of phones while driving, driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, as contained in the Lagos State Transport Sector Reform Law 2018.
