The federal government has declared the closure of the Independence Bridge (Marina-bound) from April 1 for necessary maintenance and rehabilitation work.
The Federal Controller of Works, Lagos, Mrs. Olukorede Kesha, made this known in a statement on Monday in Lagos.
She explained that the bridge would remain closed until the end of May 2025.
She said, “The closure will affect traffic traveling from Ahmadu Bello Way and Adeola Odeku towards Marina, Eko Bridge, and Onikan by Zone 2.
“Kesha advised motorists to plan their journeys accordingly and use alternative routes to avoid traffic congestion during the repair period.”
She apologized for any inconvenience the closure might cause and thanked the public for their understanding and cooperation as the government worked to ensure the safety and stability of the road infrastructure.
