The Federal Government on Thursday announced closure of the Third Mainland Bridge in Lagos, starting from midnight of Saturday, Oct. 21 to midnight of Sunday, Oct. 22, to carry out repairs on the bridge.

The Federal Controller of Works in Lagos State, Mrs Olukorede Kesha, in a statement, said the government was ready to begin comprehensive rehabilitation works on the bridge, starting with repairs of the critical portions.

“However, in order to alleviate the pains currently being experienced on the bridge, the Ministry would be carrying out palliative works on the most critically failed sections along the Adeniji bound carriageway on Sunday, Oct. 22 preparatory to the comprehensive repair works,” she said.
