In its endeavour to ensure effective traffic management and rescue/emergency services on 24hr basis on Ogun 18 major traffic corridors and Eid Praying Grounds across the state, Ogun State Traffic Compliance and Enforcement Agency, TRACE, has rolled out its operation guidelines for the Eid-Al-Adha Special Operation Schedule.
The exercise, according to a release from the office of the TRACE Commander General/Chief Executive, Cmdr. 'Seni Ogunyemi, commenced on Wednesday, 4th June, 2025, through Friday, 13th June, 2025.
The special patrol operation order would involve monitoring of motorists and other road users, inclusive of high and low capacity vehicles for safety of lives and property to be guaranteed on Ogun 18 major traffic corridors including the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway; Interchange-Sagamu-Ijebu/Ode-Benin/Ore Expressway; Sango/Ota-Atan-Owode-Idiroko Highway;
Atan-Lusada-Agbara-Badagry Highway; Abeokuta-Kobape-Siun-Interchange Expressway; Abeokuta-Ewekoro-Ifo-Sango/Ota Expressway; Rounder-Abeokuta-Olorunda-Ayetoro-Imeko-Ilara Border amongst others.
The exercise would also involve synergy with other safety and security agencies in the state, all road users through the TRACE Traffic Whistle Blower Initiative, TRACE Emergency Traffic Service and the Community Based Traffic Management Scheme, (TRACE MAYORS), against the backdrop that safety on our roads is a collective responsibility.
The release further directs Field Commanders to ensure that TRACE operatives are presentable, civil, professional, fair and firm, where and when the need arises, in the discharge of their duties, for the safety of the general public, particularly the motoring public.
While felicitating the Muslim Ummah, Cmdr Ogunyemi admonish them not to drink and drive, avoid excessive speed, plan their journey, as well as observe strict adherence to basic traffic rules and regulations because any vehicle contravened for any traffic infraction(s) during the celebrations would not be released until Monday, 16th June, 2025, when TRACE would have ended her Eid-Al-Adha Special Operation Order.
