The Lekki Concession Company (LCC) has announced the toll collection on the Lekki-Ikoyi Link Bridge, after 18 months of tolling suspension.
According to the LCC, tolling will commence on April 1 but commuters plying through the route would not pay for the first two weeks until April 15.
In an advertorial placed in The Nation on Monday, LCC’s Managing Director, Yomi Omomuwasan, noted that the resumption of operations was necessary after consultations with key stakeholders including Lagos State Government, resident associations, traditional rulers, community leaders and others.
Omomuwasan confirmed the introduction of new technology and innovations to make passages seamless and faster for commuters.
“We are replacing old toll devices with upgraded ones for faster throughput at the Toll Plaza.
“The new devices have been configured to synchronise with the newly upgraded tolling systems and will improve functionality while enabling a better experience”, the MD said.
Thelagostimes recalls that operations at the Lekki-Ikoyi toll plaza and the one inward Lekki were stalled in October 2020 during the End SARS protest.
