Third Mainland Bridge to be opened on Tuesday, Oct 30

Although the bridge was originally slated to be open to traffic by November 6, ionigeria.com investigation  revealed that work on the bridge by Borini Prono has been completed ahead of schedule.

According to the Director, South-west, Federal Ministry of Works, Ejike Mgbemena, the job has been completed but the Minister of Works will need to personally certify that the job has been satisfactorily done.

Consequently, Mr. Onolememen and the Minister of State for Works, Amb. Bashir Yuguda would be in Lagos on Tuesday to inspect the bridge and thereafter officially declare it open to traffic if satisfied with the quality of job done
