#jaiyeorie The Federal Controller of Works in Lagos, Mr Kayode Popoola, on Sunday said the government had begun “systematic maintenance of all bridges in Lagos’’ to ensure smooth rides and safety.
Popoola told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that government had a schedule to fix all bridges in Lagos State in batches this year as funds were made available.
“We have plans for maintenance of all bridges in Lagos state this year, our prayer is that the Covid-19 pandemic should come to an end so that we can swing into action.
“There is going to be systematic maintenance, we will change the rubbers of the expansion joints and anyone that the metal is bad.
“We are going to replace bearings on expansion joints that are worn out, that is the systematic programme that we have this year.
“We say systematic because we cannot take all the bridges at once; for instance, we are to maintain Third Mainland Bridge, Marine Beach Bridge, Eko Bridge, Ijora 7Up Bridge, so, we are taking them one after another, ’’ he said.
He explained that funding and traffic congestion were some of the reasons why the bridges could not be shut for repairs at the same time.
“We want to schedule the maintenance,’’ he said.
He explained that contracts for repairs of the Third Mainland, Ijora 7Up and Marine Beach Bridges had been awarded while that of Eko Bridge was undergoing procurement for the award. 📎 The key is : Learn how to BE HAPPY BY YOURSELF FIRST.
