The Federal Government has approved N6.28bn for surface maintenance of the Third Mainland Bridge, Lagos State.
The Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola who briefed State House correspondents after this week’s Federal Executive Council meeting said the maintenance project was approved by President Muhammadu Buhari.
He added that the 24-month repair will cover 11 kilometers including interchanges, ramps, and critical links.
The announcement comes barely two weeks after the Lagos State Government said it would undertake rehabilitation works on the 32-year-old Bridge to repair failed and peeled asphaltic sections and substructure.
