Ambode Commissions Abesan - Aboru Link Bridge


Ambode has done for Alimosho in 2 years, what Fashola didn't do in 8 years!

Ambode is set to commission today, Abesan - Aboru link bridge. The whole Alimosho is presently waiting for him in Abesan.



The 500 Metres Bridge, will link Iyana-Ipaja from Abule-Egba, it will also link Abesan Housing Estate on the right side. All commuters going to Abesan Estate, Ayobo-Ipaja, LASU-Iba and Okokomaiko can use the road coming from Sango-Otta, Ogun State and Abule-Egba. “The bridge will have great impact. It will have direct impact on eight communities. The communities are Agbelekale, Aboru, Abesan, Iyana-Ipaja, Ayobo, Ipaja and all the environments. The bridge was never in existence.
According to the contractor, the bridge was designed to last for over 100 years. “It is a deck-on-pile bridge. It is sitting on piles. Its width is about eight metres and about 500 metres long. “The bridge, also, came with some roads. For, instance, Giwa Road was constructed. Aboru road was constructed. Also, Ogunfisayo Street was constructed. Kasumu Street was constructed. It is about just the bridge. Other roads came with it. We faced a lot of challenges. The terrain was difficult. It was swampy. Rain really disturbed there.” It was gathered that the bridge which could have taken about three or four years was constructed between eight and nine months.
