The Lagos State Government has confirmed a traffic diversion plan for Osborne Road in Ikoyi, Eti-Osa Local Government, effective from Friday, August 15 to Sunday, August 17, 2025. The initiative, announced by Commissioner for Transportation Oluwaseun Osiyemi on Tuesday, August 12, aims to facilitate drainage connection works linking newly constructed drains along Modupe Alakija Crescent to the existing underground drainage beneath Osborne Road’s median. Construction, requiring a section cut near Foreshore Towers, will run from 10:00 p.m. on Friday to midnight on Sunday. To manage traffic, a counterflow arrangement will operate along Osborne/Alfred Rewane Road over a 100-meter stretch, with inbound traffic from Alfred Rewane limited to one lane. Alternative routes include Oba Adeyemi Oyekan Avenue to connect with Glover Road, Lugard Avenue, or Cameron Road. The Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) will oversee the diversion, with the road expected to reopen fully by Monday, August 18.
