The Federal Road Maintenance Agency, FERMA, has come under heavy criticism from Lagos residents over the abandonment of the repair works in the Third Mainland Bridge and other adjoining roads.
The agency, last month had begun repairs on both carriage ways of the Bridge, scrapping the asphalt on some section of the bridge, but had vacated site for over two weeks, leaving motorists to contend with the current bad state of the road.
Motorists had attributed several accidents on the Bridge in recent times to the uncoordinated method through which FERMA was carrying out the repair works.
