The Federal Road Safety Corps has asked the motoring public and general commuters travelling from or to Southwest, through Lokoja-Kabba- to use Lokoja-Okene-Kabba, or Lokoja-Okene-Ogorimangogo as alternative routes.
This is due to the caving in of a section of the road between Zariagi and Obajana cement factory which has led to an obstruction of free flow of traffic .
A statement by Bisi Kazeem, Assistant Corps Marshal, Corps Public Education Officer, said all the concerned authorities were making frantic efforts to carry out emergency repairs to restore normal flow of traffic.
He however said the emergency work may take some hours to complete.
