LCC Increases Tariffs at Admiralty, Lekki-Ikoyi Toll Gates
The Lekki Concession Company Limited (LCC) has announced an increase in toll tariffs paid by motorists at both the Admiralty Circle Toll Plaza on the Lekki – Epe road and the Lekki-Ikoyi Link Bridge Toll Plaza with effect from January 1, 2018.
“The toll fare increase is as a result of current economic and business realities that have adversely increased the cost of operations and maintenance of the company’s loan obligations,” said a statement by LCC yesterday.
According to LCC, a special purpose vehicle set up to execute the Eti-Osa/ Lekki-Epe Toll Road Concession Project, with the slight increase in toll tariffs, commercial transport buses and motorcycles plying the Lekki-Ajah axis will now pay N100 instead of N80 they paid previously. Those with e-tag will pay N90.
Saloon cars and tricycles will now pay N200 from N120 but N180 with e-tag; SUVs, Pick Ups and Light Buses, N250, N225 e-tag; trucks and buses with one heavy axle N400 and N360 with e-tag; heavy trucks and buses with more than one heavy axle, N1000 and N900 with e-tag.
At the toll plaza of the Lekki-Ikoyi link bridge, saloon cars will pay N300 and N270 with e-tag; SUVs, mini-vans, light pick-up trucks will pay N400 and N360 with e-tag; non-commercial buses with maximum capacity of 26 seats, N1000 and N900 with e-tag; and motorcycles with 200cc capacity and above will pay N200 and N180 with e-tag.
