Lagos State Government has announced that no fewer than 800 buildings will be affected following the proposed 4th Mainland Bridge.

Special Adviser to the Governor on Works and Infrastructure, Engr. Aramide Adeyoye, speaking at a joint news conference on Friday (Dec. 30, 2022), said the proposed Fourth Mainland Bridge is expected to be completed in 54 months, adding that 16 alignments were being considered.

She disclosed that structures to be affected and demolished to pave the way for the project had been pruned down from 2,000 to 800, with adequate compensation to be made.

Adeyoye also disclosed that the project, a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) arrangement, would see the consortium tolling the bridge for 40 years before handing it over to the government.

The special adviser added that work on the bridge would begin in the first quarter of 2023.

Gbenga Omotoso, Commissioner for Information and Strategy, said those whose structures would be demolished would be duly compensated and that affected property owners should have no fear.

The Special Adviser to the Governor on PPP, Ope George, said CCECC-CRCCIG Consortium won the preferred bidder and would undertake the proposed construction of the Fourth Mainland Bridge.
