dc.description.abstractThe Apapa traffic gridlock occasioned by articulated lorry movement for logistic services on the corridor has posed almost intractable traffic challenges over the years. A conceptual electronic-control approach to the corridor traffic management presented here is the bedrock of an on-going intensive simulation study to establish the efficacy of the approach. In this electronic concept, a central control station is connected to four parking zones on the outskirt of Lagos linking Ibadan, Abeokuta, Epe and Sagamu/Ijebu-Ode and other internal Transit Parks doubling as parks and check points for trucks inbound Lagos and Apapa business corridor. Information on available parking spaces on cargo and fuel lifting bookings, available parking spaces and serviced vehicles details are made available real time from Cargo freight agencies and distributors and petroleum Tank Farms. This presentation is based on three-tiers of e-control measures at the Transit Park/Control Points, Within Traffic Network and at Enrolled Destination levels. With effective implementation and enforcement this e-control measure will sanitize the Apapa traffic corridor and its adjoining areas.en_US
