The Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, has announced that the Third Mainland Bridge in Lagos would be totally opened to traffic today.
The bridge has been partially shut since July 2020 for repairs.
Last Thursday, the Lagos State government had disclosed that there would be a total closure of the Third Mainland bridge from midnight Friday to midnight Saturday, which was later refuted by the former Lagos State Governor.
However, Fashola via his official twitter handle on Saturday stated that the bridge will now be officially open today.
“Third mainland bridge rehab completed. Fully opens to traffic at 12noon today. Thank you all for your patience. Drive safely.”
