  • Die Third Mainland Bridge (dt. dritte Festlandbrücke) ist eine Brücke in der nigerianischen Stadt Lagos. Sie verbindet wie die und die Eko-Brücke das Stadtzentrum Lagos Island und die benachbarten Finanz- und Regierungszentren Ikoyi und Victoria Island mit dem nördlichen Festland, wo auch der internationale Flughafen Lagos liegt. Die Third Mainland Bridge ist mit einer Länge von 10,5 km die längste der drei Brücken. Sie führt, ausgehend vom nördlichen Ende von Lagos Island, über die Lagune von Lagos nach Norden und nach mehreren Kilometern in westlicher Richtung zur Schnellstraße Lagos–Ibadan. Die Third Mainland Bridge wurde 1990 erbaut, um das Verkehrsnetz der Millionenstadt zu entlasten. Noch immer führt der dichte Verkehr zwischen dem Stadtzentrum und dem Festland täglich zu Verkehrsstaus. In letzter Zeit wurde von einem Schwanken der Brücke berichtet, das auf Baufälligkeit hinweisen könnte. (de)

The phase one of the project was commissioned by President Shehu Shagari in 1980 and completed by President Ibrahim Babangida in 1990; it measures about 11.8 km in length. By 2006, many commuters had reported that the Third Mainland Bridge was vibrating noticeably, indicating that it needed urgent attention. As a result, remedial work was commenced on portions of the bridge at different times, leading to intermittent partial closure of the bridge. In January 2013, this work was completed. Recently, there have been rumours of cracks on the bridge. This, however, was denied by authorities. The eight-lane bridge experienced a new look during the last repairing exercise, painting the bridge guide with the colours of Nigeria: green, white, green, and also general painting was done out for a new look. The repair works on the bridge were completed and the bridge was reopened on October 30, 2012. The Third Mainland Bridge has very high vehicular traffic on weekdays, as many residents commute to and from the Lagos Mainland to the Island, which is the commercial hub of Lagos State. Residents in Ikeja, Agboyi-Ketu, Ikorodu, Isheri, Oworonshoki, Gbagada, Yaba, Maryland and Oshodi often use the bridge on their daily commutes. The Third Mainland Bridge is an essential part of Lagos' daily commuting, and as such requires to be constantly renovated. It has also come to be a major Lagos icon, offering different views of Lagos -- the Lagos Lagoon, the University of Lagos waterfront and Makoko, a shanty town built on the Lagos Lagoon. On 6 July 2020, it was announced that the Third Mainland Bridge will be closed for six months due to repairs. The bridge was to undergo another round of repairs from Friday, July 24, 2020 to January 24, 2021 for the replacement of bearings and worn-out expansion joints. (en)
