The Federal government on the eighth of November, 2023, flagged off the rehabilitation works which focused on a complete replacement of the asphalt of the bridge deck, the deck painting, replacement of missing gadgets on the bridge and an installation of CCTV.
The bridge which has been closed at intervals, majorly at the section that allows for traffic flow from Iyana Oworonshoki inward to Lagos Island and its reopening will be a major relief for motorists and commuters from the island to the mainland of Nigeria’s commercial capital.
