The Federal Ministry of Works has announced a 24-hour total closure of the Third Mainland Bridge to allow the contractor to execute a major aspect of the ongoing repair works on the bridge.
Gatekeepers News reports that the Lagos State Commissioner for Transportation, Oluwaseun Osiyemi, made this announcement in a statement on Monday.
The closure will affect both bounds of the carriageways from 12 noon on Wednesday, February 28th to 12 noon on Thursday, February 29th, 2024.
During this period, all road users are advised to use alternative routes already provided as the bridge will not be opened to traffic for 24-hours.
However, Osiyemi assured road users that traffic management officials would be on ground to manage traffic and minimize inconveniences.
Repair works have been ongoing on the bridge since January with partial closures for in and outbound traffics.
