The chairman, who spoke through the agency’s General Manager, Commander Ayoade Adeoye, assured residents that OYRTMA personnel are actively working to manage traffic flow across the state.
He, however, appealed to road users to observe traffic rules and regulations, stressing the need for patience and cooperation with traffic officials.
