The federal government will again shut down the Third Mainland Bridge this weekend for another round of expansion joints replacement.
The bridge would be closed from midnight on Friday to midnight on Monday, February 1.
Federal Controller of Works Lagos, Olukayode Popoola made the announcement on Wednesday.
Popoopla said that the construction works had reached the stage for casting concrete on additional three expansion joints.
The official appealed for the understanding of Lagos residents.
“Messers Boroni Prono is planning to cast three number expansion joints on Saturday 30th and Sunday 31st. We are sorry for the inconveniences this may cause Lagosians,” he said.
The bridge, which links the mainland and island, was partially shut from July 24, 2020.
Since then, other routes that usually witnessed traffic are now mostly blocked.
