“Some were critical, others were less critical and the Third Mainland Bridge is one of those bridges. At the time we estimated that we will need about N277bn to do all of that work over a period of four years,” He said.

While he further noted that the budget received to revive and run a maintenance check on the bridges was less than expected, he however stated that some work has started after receiving a good “tip” from the government.
