The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has issued an advisory to motorists and diverted traffic along the Enugu–Port Harcourt dual carriageway following a collapsed flyover bridge.
FRSC spokesman Bisi Kazeem said this in a statement on Tuesday.
The collapsed bridge was at the new artisan market on the Port Harcourt-Enugu dual carriageway in Enugu.
The bridge collapsed on Monday at 12.30 p.m., affecting motorists and commuters.
FRSC advised motorists from Portharcourt-Aba to Abakaliki to pass through Bricks at the new Kenyatta Market (army checkpoint), Okpara Square.
“This will lead them to New Haven junction by Otigba Roundabout, through Ogui Roundabout-Abakpa junction (82 Division) and proceed to Abakaliki. While on the other hand, motorists from Abuja-Abakaliki going to Aba-Portharcourt are advised to take Abakpa Junction (82 Division)-New Haven junction by Otigba roundabout,” the FRSC statement said.
It added, “This would be through Ogui Roundabout to Okpara Square and proceed to Enugu-Portharcourt dual carriageway, new Kenyatta Market (army checkpoint) and continue to Aba-Port Harcourt.”
