Traders, Artisans Turn Space To Mobile Workshops
Recall that part of the bridge was damaged when on January 7, 2021, a tanker conveying fuel burnt on it, leading to its closure to vehicular movement to enable government conduct structural engineering tests on the bridge. However, this joy is short-lived because as of the time The Guardian visited the bridge the granular materials comprising the base course, asphalt and others have not been done thereby heightening fears that the Federal and Lagos State governments are not in a haste to open the bridge.Despite this, sources close to the contractors say the delay is not from them, as both the Federal and Lagos State governments are yet to fulfill their financial commitment to the project.
“The work is not abandoned. The site is only cordoned off so nobody knows what is happening here. There are lots of activities going on here, but because it is covered many people think the engineers are not working. We are trying to be protective in order to prevent further hazard. According to him, all these tests take seven, 21 and 28 days to complete, stressing that Lagosians should not be worried, as the contractors are working to hand over a well rehabilitated bridge to the public.
