The Federal Government has announced the temporary closure of the Independence Bridge (Marina bound) for essential maintenance and rehabilitation. The closure, which takes effect from April 1, is expected to last until the end of May 2025.
In a statement released on Monday in Lagos, the Federal Controller of Works, Mrs. Olukorede Kesha, confirmed the development, emphasizing the need for repairs to ensure the safety and stability of the road infrastructure.
“The closure will affect traffic traveling from Ahmadu Bello Way and Adeola Odeku towards Marina, Eko Bridge, and Onikan by Zone 2,” Kesha stated. She urged motorists to plan their journeys accordingly and explore alternative routes to mitigate traffic congestion during the period.
While acknowledging the inconvenience the closure may cause, Kesha extended an apology to the public and expressed gratitude for their patience and cooperation as the government undertakes these critical repairs.
