The Federal Government on Sunday postponed plans to partially close the Falomo Bridge in Victoria Island for repairs.
The Federal Controller of Works in Lagos, Olukayode Popoola, made this known to the media, saying that the decision to suspend the rehabilitation of the bridge was reached after a meeting with relevant stakeholders.
Said he: “After consultations with relevant stakeholders we decided to postpone the rehabilitation work. A new date would be announced for the partial closure and commencement of repair works soon”.
The public works official apologised to road users and members of the public on inconveniences caused by the shift in date for the repairs.
Popoola had in a statement on Friday night announced a plan to partially close the Falomo Bridge for a six weeks rehabilitation work.
