Eko Hot Blog reports that the Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, says the state government has selected 3 companies for the final stage in the contract award process for the 4th Mainland Bridge.
He also said that the selection process for the project, which will be executed under a Public-Private Partnership (PPP), will be completed by March this year.
The project is running behind schedule as the governor had earlier said that the project will take off by the end of 2021.
This was made known by Governor Sanwo-Olu while speaking during an interview on a Channels Television programme; Sunrise Daily, as he was trying to highlight efforts by his administration to tackle the traffic gridlock and improve infrastructure across the state.
Sanwo-Olu, who noted that the fourth mainland bridge is a huge project, said 3 companies had been shortlisted for the final stage of the process from an initial list of 30 companies.
Sanwo-Olu, during the interview, said, “I also addressed the Fourth Mainland Bridge which is a big project we want to deliver under Public-Private Partnership (PPP). From about 30 companies that expressed interest, we are now at the final stage with three shortlisted companies and I am hoping by March we should have completed the process.
‘’I want to say our administration is doing well, even if I do say so myself and our people can also testify to the progress we are making across board.
‘’I made a promise to serve Lagosians diligently and I intend to continue to do that with all the vigour and energy in me.’’
