In a statement, the Federal Controller of Works for Lagos State, Mrs. Olukorede Kesha, stated that the government was prepared to commence extensive bridge restoration, beginning with key section repairs.
According to Kesha, the Federal Government wanted the driving public to know that it was now developing preparations to complete extensive repairs on the Third Mainland Bridge.
