The Oyo State Government has opened the newly constructed Olodo bridge in Ibadan, the state capital, 10 months after it ordered the closure of the old one.

recalls that the old bridge was washed away by flood in July last year, prompting the state government to order its closure and promise to construct a new one.

reports that the government opened the reconstructed half of the bridge for vehicular movement on Saturday. Governor Seyi Makinde, who was represented by the Commissioner for Public Works, Infrastructure and Transport, Professor Dahud Shangodoyin, opened the completed right side of the bridge, which serves as a link to Osun State.
