Osun: Olaiya Flyover Bridge Closed Temporarily

The popular Olaiya Bridge in Osogbo, the capital of Osun State, has been closed temporarily.

 

According to reports, this closure is to allow for the installation of barriers at the bridge’s entrance to prevent heavy trucks from using the bridge.

 

Inside Osogbo shared the updates on social media, urging motorists and other road users to exercise patience along the axis.

 

The blog wrote: “ATTENTION: The popular Ọlà-Ìyá Bridge is currently closed to give way for the installation of barriers at the entrance of the bridge to disallow heavy duty trucks from using the bridge. Motorists and other road users are enjoined to exercise patience along this axis.Kindly rebroadcast

 

The Olaiya Bridge was constructed by the administration of former Governor Gboyega Oyetola.

 

Recently, the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Osun accused the state government of planning to demolish the iconic flyover bridge.

 

However, Governor Ademola Adeleke has denied these allegations and banned heavy-duty trucks from plying the flyover.
