The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has completed a major phase of the overhead bridge linking Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA), Lagos, as part of ongoing efforts to rehabilitate and modernise the country’s premier international airport.
The development marks a significant milestone in the terminal rehabilitation and expansion project aimed at improving connectivity between the two terminals and enhancing passenger movement within the airport.
The Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of FAAN, Mrs Olubunmi Kuku, alongside members of the authority’s management team, inspected the completed phase of the bridge and other ongoing construction works at the airport.
The overhead bridge is designed to provide a more convenient connection between the two terminals, potentially reducing the difficulty of moving between facilities and supporting a smoother passenger experience.
Its completion represents progress in efforts to upgrade airport infrastructure to meet the needs of passengers, airlines and other airport users.
The rehabilitation and expansion project forms part of the broader effort to improve facilities at MMIA, one of Nigeria’s major gateways for international travel and a key hub for the country’s aviation industry.
Improved connectivity between airport terminals is particularly important for passenger convenience, accessibility and the efficient movement of people through airport facilities.
FAAN’s management inspection also provided an opportunity to assess the progress of other ongoing works at the terminal as the authority continues its infrastructure improvement programme.
However, FAAN has yet to announce a specific date for the full completion of the bridge or provide details of when it will be opened for public use.
The latest development signals further progress in the ongoing transformation of MMIA, with attention now turning to the completion of the remaining project components and the eventual delivery of improved facilities for airport users.
