The Lagos 4th Mainland Bridge: Timeline And All You Need To Know. by Viktoreze(m): 12:53pm On Nov 04, 2021
The 4th Mainland Bridge is a 38 km long bridge set for construction by the Lagos State Government, Nigeria. The bridge cuts across Lekki, Langbasa, and Baiyeiku towns along the shoreline of the Lagos Lagoon estuaries, further running through Igbogbo River Basin and crossing the Lagos Lagoon estuaries to Itamaga Area in Ikorodu. It then crosses the Itoikin road and the Ikorodu – Sagamu Road to connect Isawo inward Lagos Ibadan Expressway at the Ojodu Berger axis.

The bridge is a four-lane dual carriageway, each comprising of 3 lanes and 2 meters hard shoulder on each side. It will also have 9 interchanges to facilitate effective interconnectivity between different parts of the State, in addition to 3 toll plazas, 4.5 km Lagoon Bridge and an eco-friendly environment amongst other features.

As per the design, the future Fourth Mainland Bridge will have a generous median to allow for both future carriageway expansion and light rail/BRT lane. Upon completion, the facility will be the longest of its kind in the whole of Africa.

Benefits of the 4th Mainland Bridge

The 4th Mainland Bridge will connect people and improve their natural flow in large numbers through a reorganization of vehicular, waterways, and pedestrian modes of transportation. It will also serve as a means for vehicular traffic on its upper level, and accommodate pedestrian, social, commercial, and cultural interactions on its lower level.

Additionally, in conjunction with existing road networks, it will establish a primary ring road around Lagos, which is expected to provide alternative traffic routes from Lekki to Ikorodu, Ikeja to Ajah, relieving the 3rd Mainland Bridge of its overstretched capacity.

Project timeline

The idea for the construction of the 4th Mainland Bridge was conceptualized by the government of Lagos under Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The construction works, expected to be completed by 2019, were planned to commence in 2017, approximately 26 years after the delivery of the Third Mainland Bridge by the ex-military President Ibrahim Babangida at an estimated cost of over US$ 2.2bn.

2019

The Lagos state government started the selection process for construction of the 4th Mainland Bridge in November 2019 following the advertisement of an Expression of Interest (EOI).

2020

Ope George, the director-general of the Lagos State Government office of public-private partnership (PPP) announced that the cost of the project had been revised from US$ 2,2bn to US$ 2.5bn.

The Government of the State of Lagos shortlisted 10 firms out of 32 eligible companies that responded to the call for Expression of Interest (EOI) and applied for the construction of the Fourth Mainland Bridge in Lagos.

2021

Special Adviser for Works & Infrastructure to the Lagos State Governor, Eng. Aramide Adeyoye disclosed that the state would announce the preferred bidder for the construction of the fourth mainland bridge in the third quarter (Q3) of the year.

In May, the Lagos State Governor, Bababjide Sanwo-Olu, announced that the construction of the project would kick off in December 2021.
