See the new look of YABA that got everyone complaining bitterly including me.
The last time I went to Yaba was three months ago when the new fly over bridge was still under construction only to get there yesterday and discovered it has been completed and the road on the rail line that leads to tejuoso has been blocked and fenced off so everyone has to go through the fly over bridge to access tejuoso market and the bridge is unnecessarily long and exhausting.

I was there yesterday but had to go again today because yesterday the complex I wanted to get stuff was shut and according to the traders the govt was coming for inspection.

The way they built the bridges are not convenient cos you'll climb two long lanes before you'll get to another long lanes descending to the other side. Lagosian were complaining as they climb and descend. On the other wing there are stairs. I used the stairs today thinking it would be better than the other walkway and nearly fainted.

Is this to add to Nigerians suffering or better their lives because someone who's already experiencing hunger can not climb that bridge o.

Below are pics of the flyover.

More like; “Keeping them fit and healthy for the HUNGER ahead”



But on a serious note, this pedestrian bridge has it's own advantages. It outweighs the disadvantages

Ok

It's well

Okay

Nothing concern me but E dey mind

Just nawa

Maybe there's a structural explanation to this, but i do not know CCECC will be punishing people in the name of "Pedestrian bridge"

Currently seeing the one being constructed in front of LASU, and i can't imagine myself walking such a distance.

They should make these designs simple, abeg

Hm

Yaba left

What a revolting sight.
No aesthetic atall.

Bad camera

Ok

Whatever improves the profit margin for handlers.

It's normal. We are just used to shortcuts.

Nonsense

Emilakon ....u most keep fit even if you are hungry...exercise is good for the body and mind ...the more long is the bridge the more healthier the s will be...don't be lazy man...

When last did you exercise? You should be thankful for a free "gym"

Why are people still selling stuffs under the overhead bridge? People no deh hear word. Why do they like to deface public amenities? Na Everytime govt go deh drive them comot the side.

I'm not joking. If you climb that bridge you'll be panting by the time you get to other side.

It's going to make me reduce my visits to the market. I can't deal.

What of the elderly ones? Is this not punishment?

According to ur govt, that's is a state of the art Bridge, no cap 😁

If they come out to tell you the billions of Naira they spent on this eyesore and energy draining bridge, you will get pissed off.


Are there no other routes?

They need to start putting up escalators.

It's well

after that what next.

Very terrible poor design
The fundamental purpose of a pedestrian bridge is to provide a safe and efficient means for people to cross the road swiftly and conveniently. This maze I'm seeing here is far from convenient.

I ed that area four months ago when I visited Unilag. I couldn't help but imagine the construction that CCECC did there. It seems like the construction was an idea of a drunk Engineer.

I understand that a flyover was constructed to connect Ojuelegba to the other side of Yaba but what is the essence of a pedestrian staircase. Infact once you get under the pedestrian staircase, you'll have to climb up the stairs and then down again as of you're climbing up and down a manual lift to get to other section. Perhaps the stairs is great for exercise but not for the sick and aged.

Are you an igbo or why exactly will one be complaining about overhead bridge built to safeguard the lives of the populace ?!
