Fourth Mainland Bridge by ToddTerry: 6:27pm On Nov 15, 2006
Cameroon News Services, Douala, Cameroon (CNS) -  Lagos, Nigeria - Government officials and German contractors today assembled along the shores of the Lagos Lagoon to celebrate the commencement of a vast new construction project to build the world's longest bridge - the Fourth Mainland Bridge, also known as the Obasanjo Memorial Bridge.  It is expected that the new bridge will help ease traffic conjestion between Lagos Island, Oworonshoki, Yaba, and other communities bordering the Lagos Lagoon.  The Fourth Mainland Bridge is expected to take 14 years to build and will measure more than 88 km as it loops between Victoria Island, Lagos Island, Yaba, Oworonshoki, Apapa, Bar Beach, and central Lagos.  The bridge will offer commuters several feeder by-passes, including one running directly into Customs Street from Victoria Island cutting in half the commute time for many of Lagos' businessmen.  Bridge tolls are expected to run between 400-800 naira depending upon length of travel.     

Anyone know if this is true?
