The Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC), has just confirmed that a BRT bus, that was conveying passengers across the Third Mainland Bridge, has fallen off the bridge, into the Lagos Lagoon.
The FRSC relayed this information via its Twitter account. It posted: “A fully loaded BRT bus fell off the 3rd mainland bridge into the Lagos lagoon, 26-11-12. Rescue work in progress. Motorists be cautious.”
It was recalled that the bridge – which is the longest in West Africa – was re-opened on November 6, after it was partially closed down for repair works, which lasted over three months.
