The Lagos State government has announced that the sections of the Third Mainland Bridge closed to vehicular movement have been reopened.

In a statement, the Commissioner for Transportation, OLUWASEUN OSIYEMI said following essential maintenance, the entire bridge is now fully accessible to the public, ensuring smoother connectivity and safe commuting.

He commended Nigerians for their patience during the temporary closure, adding that the government understood the inconvenience the closure may have caused.

OSIYEMI maintained that the reopening reaffirms the government’s commitment to infrastructure upkeep and public safety.

The move came over one month after the Federal Government through the Ministry of Works announced that it would be closing two ramps of the Third Mainland Bridge for repairs.
