But the bridge really need to be fixed, while driving from mainland. You need to be careful and watch carefully because they a lot of pot holes and I support the repair of the road.

For Sanity and Safety of Nigerians.

We welcome the idea and right now, Yaba bridge leading to Island will see holdup tire.

This same bridge that Fashola closed for 9 months all in the name of same repairs. Are we this stupid or gullible in this country?

Please what does “palliative work” mean? After shutting the bridge for months for “palliative work “ the other time, we were practically using torchlight for search for the work done.

When will East West road be considered a death trap and repaired? Including all the Federal roads in Edo State.?


Our leaders need to travel by road to experience the havoc of last year's flood and this years rainy season on roads in the south and East

Before they close the third mainland bridge on Sunday, the Lagos state government should open the road barricade of eko bridge starting from Alaka bustop, the traffick there is too much , cars are diverted to use costain bridge.
The police , lastma and vio are now extorting motorists at that Alaka segment instead of them to pass cars to have free movement, they are doing stop and search again

I hope they finally fix this bridge. I must commend those who actually structured Abuja Road Network System.

I wish the Lagos state can go back to the drawing board, and plan something marvelous about Lagos like that of Abuja

How many times will they maintain this same third mainland bridge.
Is this an avenue to steal funds or the engineers are just incompetent

Re: Death Traps: Lagos State Govt To Close Third Mainland Bridge (pic) by Horbar1: 5:10pm On Sep 15, 2023
It seems some people are cashing out from this incessant repair.
Just an opinion.
Re: Death Traps: Lagos State Govt To Close Third Mainland Bridge (pic) by newoffer: 6:15pm On Sep 15, 2023
Exactly. Be like there's a format every of these guys follow. Fashola closed that bridge several times. God help us. Just few months after opening Eko Bridge. Eko bridge will see lots of traffic. Next thing Eko bridge is weak. We have bunch of irregularities.

The third mainland bridge is a conduit pipe for siphoning public funds.

We are stupid. Thanks to the bunch locals who are vividly supporting their own brand. Shey na person wey be abgero go question another inefficiency. The Badary projects starts from Theatre area. Go and check Doyin and see if that is the road that is Newly built.

Not only Fashola,

Sanwo-Olu also closed it 2 years ago for almost 4-6 months.

But the bridge is not in a proper state, because my car is very low, I'm always careful in that bridge.

It's an avenue to get money.
But it needs to be fixed for our safety
