The Minister of Works, David Umahi, first announced on Saturday that the repair works on the popular bridge will commence on November 1 when he recently inspected under deck and lagoon sections of the bridge.The reason for the maintenance is because the bridge is old.The repairs will last for three months.Road users will have access to the bridge from 4am till midnight.
Replacement of railings, installation of solar-powered lights, and installation of CCTV cameras are all part of road maintenance plans. The minister said he carried out inspection of the top surface of the bridge on Friday before embarking on inspection of the Lagoon portions.The minister explained that patching of various sections of the top surface of bridge had led to undulating surfacing, which was not healthy for its safety, hence the need to remove and relay the entire asphaltic covering.
