The Lagos State Government Thursday banned 911 buses, popularly known as molue, from plying all routes on Lagos Island.
The state government said no molue should cross any bridge linking the Island, which it said, included the Third Mainland, Eko and Carter bridges.
The directive was contained in a statement by the General Manager of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA), Mr. Babatunde Edu, noting that the buses could no longer operate in the Central Business District (CBD).
The general manager said the decision was taken by the state government as part of its effort to ensure adequate monitoring of the operations of commercial vehicles and compliance with traffic rules and regulations.
Consequently, Edu said the new directive took effect from August 19, though pledged to adequately enlighten all the commercial operators in the state on the new directive.
