In view of the ongoing construction works at Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has issued a notice informing passengers and other airport users of the intention to redirect vehicular movements on the arrival floor at the airport effective from 0800 hours on Monday, November 26, 2018.

The temporary redirection of  the arrival traffic, according to the spokesperson at FAAN, Mrs. Henrietta Yakubu, is aimed at enhancing facilitation and improving travel experience of passengers  while the construction works at the Lagos airport lasted

To this effect, Yakubu added that a temporary Arrival Pick Up Zone in the old car park (opposite the terminal building) would be opened.

“Consequently, arriving passengers will, as usual, exit the halls through Arrival Gate D but will no longer be able to turn left as the left axis will be closed due to construction. All passengers after exiting from Arrival Gate D, will now turn right and proceed to the old car park (opposite the terminal building) where the temporary pick up zone has been created,” the FAAN image maker explained.

To ensure seamless vehicular movement during the ongoing phase of the construction, Yakubu said that FAAN has already mobilized relevant security agencies to assist in ensuring improved landside facilitation.

 

FAAN therefore appealed to all airport users to cooperate with the security agencies on ground to ensure compliance to driving/parking rules, even as the management  apologised  for any inconvenience that the redirection  may cause them.
