The Ministry of Works has revealed that two ramps of the Third Mainland will be shut down for repairs from the 6th of November 2023, for a period of five weeks. This was contained in a statement signed by the Federal Controller of Works, Lagos Engr. (Mrs) O. I. Kesha, stating the repairs commence from next week Monday. “In view of the above, the motoring public is hereby notified that the repair works will begin with the ramps connecting Oworonshoki to Adekunle and Lagos-Island (Adeniji Adele) to Adekunle simultaneously.
“Consequently, the two ramps mentioned above will be closed to traffic by 7 a.m. on Monday, for five weeks. “Motorists are, therefore, advised to cooperate with the traffic management officials by obeying and observing all diversions as directed. They are encouraged to use the alternative routes,” she said.
The controller in a traffic advisory urged motorists to comply with traffic rules, adding that traffic officers would be deployed at all diversion routes for effective monitoring, management, and control. Kesha said tow trucks and vehicles would also be deployed for prompt removal of distressed vehicles and trucks.
Motorists coming from Iyana-Oworo on the mainland and going to Adekunle are advised to avoid the Third Mainland Bridge and use alternative routes. Likewise, the ones coming from the island on the Adeniji side going to Adekunle should use alternative routes because there will not be access to Adekunle.
