FRSC announces a one-day traffic diversion on the Kaduna-Zaria highway this Sunday, September 6, as officials inspect railway bridge beams at Kwaranza Village.

The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has announced a one-day traffic diversion on the Kaduna-Zaria axis of the A2 Highway on Sunday, September 6, 2026.

In a post on its X handle on Saturday, the FRSC said the diversion would take place at DK825, Kwaranza Village, at the intersection with the Kaduna-Kano Rail Line, between 8:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.

Why the Diversion Is Happening

The Corps said the temporary traffic arrangement was necessary to facilitate the inspection of railway bridge beams under the Kaduna-Kano Rail Modernisation Project. Only one lane of the dual carriageway will be open to traffic during the exercise.

To manage the disruption, the FRSC said appropriate caution signs, cones and diversion markers would be deployed at the location, with patrol teams on ground to manage traffic and ensure the safety of road users.

Advisory to Motorists

The FRSC urged motorists approaching the diversion to reduce speed, exercise extreme caution and avoid overtaking around the diversion point. It also advised road users to plan their journeys ahead of time and use alternative routes where possible to minimise delays.

The Corps further urged compliance with all traffic control devices and instructions from FRSC personnel throughout the exercise.
