The Managing Director of the LCC, Yomi Omomuwasan, who announced the plan, said that tolling will commence on April 1, 2022, on the Lekki-Ikoyi link bridge.
The LCC boss also announced that commuters plying the corridor will not be paying any toll for the first two weeks until 15th April 2022.
According to Omomuwasan, the resumption of tolling at the bridge is coming after extensive consultations with, and support of key stakeholders including the Residents Associations, Traditional Rulers, Community Leaders, professional bodies as well as the Lagos State Government.
“We have introduced new technology and innovations to make the passage at the Toll Plaza seamless and faster for commuters. We are replacing the old toll device with upgraded ones for faster throughput at the Toll Plaza.
