As part of ongoing efforts to promote orderly parking, improve traffic flow and ensure unobstructed access for all road users, the Lagos State Parking Authority (LASPA) has intensified parking enforcement across the state.
General manager of LASPA, Mrs. Adebisi Adelabu, dropped this hint while speaking on the agency’s efforts in ensuring proper parking.
According to her, the Monitoring and Enforcement Team of LASPA recently carried out enforcement to sanitize the illegal parking activities at Akintoye road along the Ajeromi General Hospital, Apapa.
She disclosed that the enforcement focused on vehicles parked in designated “No Parking Zones” became necessary after an extensive public enlightenment campaign and the installation of road signages along the Akintoye road corridor.
Mrs. Adelabu noted that the operation was carried out peacefully and professionally, in accordance with standard procedures, without disruption of public order, emphasizing that vehicles found in violation of the parking regulations were attended to with towing, where necessary.
She further observed that one of the authority’s ‘No Parking signs’ installed along the corridor was missing and warned residents/motorists to desist from theft/vandalism of public infrastructures, as perpetrators would be made to face the full wrath of the law when caught.
The General Manager, of the Parking Authority, therefore urged motorists to comply with all parking regulations, observe traffic signages, utilise only designated parking facilities and always cooperate with LASPA enforcement officers.
