In response to the incident, traffic has been diverted to the Iddo/Oyingbo route to ease congestion and ensure smooth flow.

Officers from the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) have also been deployed to manage the situation.

LASTMA confirmed the incident in a post on X on Wednesday, stating, “A barrier at Carter Bridge, inward journey Ijora Olopa has been knocked down for the second time within 24 hours.
