A cross section of residents in Bariga area of Lagos State on Friday bemoaned the gridlock on major roads in the town.
A commercial driver, Lamidi Sodiq attributed the main cause of traffic in Bariga was due to bad road projects.
He said: ‘’It is a known fact that Lagos State is ridden with loads of deplorable roads. These bad roads are filled with potholes that fill up with water during rainy seasons which cause traffic to build up; motorists either get stuck in them or try really hard to navigate them.

Another motorist, Kolawole Ajayi said:’’ Lagos is a heavily populated city, thus this state is becoming overrun by too many cars, hence, the result of constant traffic.’’
‘’There are too many corrupt law enforcement agents on the roads and in a bid to extort drivers, they end up causing traffic, while a number of them bully motorists,’’ said a commuter, John Uche.
