Construction Of Fourth Mainland Bridge To Commence In 2024 – Sanwo-Olu
Lagos state Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has revealed that the long awaited commencement of the construction of the Fourth Mainland Bridge would begin in the first quarter of this year.
This was disclosed during the Lagos West Senatorial District Town Hall Meeting.
The Governor assured that tenants and landlords affected by building demolitions in the process will receive fair compensation.
“We’ve done extensive work on the bridge. But we are at the crossroads of where to get the real financing for that kind of project. We’ll need to be very creative.
“Our commitment is that within this first quarter, meaning that by the end of March or April, we should break ground to start the construction of the Fourth Mainland Bridge.”
“It is going to be built in phases; phase one will be from the Junction at Abraham Adesanya all the way to the Waterfront that we have at Badore.
“I am using this opportunity to say that we have done extensive study, so we cannot get a new road without having to do a little bit of discomfort but we will ensure that we will compensate everybody that their properties or businesses will be disturbed by this construction. So, it is going to be along the existing corridors and a few buildings will be touched.”
