The lane became a priority after RIA witness a series of accidents in recent years. This has made the call for the expansion as many say it will limit the risk the current road condition poses. Especially after the death of a former Liberian Legislator, Adolph Lawrence who lost his life tragically in a motor accident on the Robertsfield-Monrovia highway.
