Special Adviser to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Public Private Partnership (PPP), Ope George, who disclosed this in Lagos on Friday, gave the names of the three shortlisted bidders as Mota–Engil (Nig & Africa) CCCC & CRBC consort; CGGC – CGC Joint Venture and CCECC & CRCCIG Consortium, said the proposed 37km bridge will be worth between $2.5 billion and $3 billion.
According to George, the bridge expected to become the second longest in Africa will feature three toll plazas, nine interchanges, a 4.5km lagoon bridge, and an eco-friendly environment.
“The Fourth Mainland Bridge is expected to span about 37 kilometers, starting from Abraham Adesanya in Ajah, on the Eti-Osa-Lekki-Epe corridor and transverse from the Northwest towards the lagoon shoreline of the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway via Owutu/Isawo in Ikorodu,” George said.
“The idea of constructing the Fourth Mainland Bridge was aimed at reducing severe congestion on the existing 3rd Mainland Bridge; while opening new areas for future development,” he added.
