This is the gateway between Delta and Anambra state,is also a link between the Eastern Nigeria and South which extended to the western Nigeria.The Traffic in Evenings is serious especially when it rains. I spent almost 1hr on the bridge and it wasnt funny as i ways always not the out look for my safety. Overall ,i think another bridge is needed to easy off this traffic

Constant traffic on this bridge from the Asaba end of the bridge to the point where road safety officials are doing their work.It is a two lane bridge at this time without separation between incoming and outgoing vehicles.The view is great.One of the longest bridges in Nigeria with proper renovation required or a second bridge should be constructed to support it as proposed by the Nigerian government.It is not optional to use.In order to drive or cross into the South East by road, I highly recommend it as there is no place else to cross from the South West, South South into the South East.

Finally got to see the Niger Bridge and the Niger River and it is lovely. Hope the second Niger Bridge is more beautiful than this one. Fingers crossed

Very nicely built and well managed by FRSC who controls traffic. There is also heavy presence of armed security personnel at all points of the bridge.

Review №18

The only existing link bridge connecting Asaba, Delta State to Onitsha Anambra state, which gives access to other Eastern states over the River Niger. Its a dual carriage road and usually has stand still traffic because of the amount of people coming in and out of Onitsha. The second Niger bridge is under construction, I hope its completed in good time so as to relief the existing Niger bridge and ease movement.

This bridge is the entrance to Anambra state. Spanning over the historic River Niger, this bridge is very prone to traffic congestion.On one end is Asaba, Delta State and the other is Onitsha Anambra state depending on where you are coming from.It always give me good memories and reminds me that I am home.

There’s always a bit of traffic before going on the bridge, some times light if you’re lucky often times heavy. But I always look forward seeing the bridge as it signifies the end of my journey.

Review №29

There is a lot of hold up on this bridge almost everydayThe bridge is to tiny, it was supposed to be wide enough to accommodate at least 6 lanesBut it can only accommodate 2, if it is more than 2, then it is war.Sometimes it takes 2,3,1, or 4 hours to cross this bridge and other times, it takes less than 10, 20, or even 5 minutes to cross.I just pray the second Niger bridge is completed so that the traffic in this bridge will be reduced.

I rate this place 2 star, though it ought to be a wonderful landmark for us, but it has become a nightmare anytime I remember I have to cross this bridge . Ordinarily its less than 3mins to cross from asaba to onitsha ,but it take over an hour often, to cross from Asaba to onitsha.

Its a magnificent structure, one that the federal government has really interested in and maintained over the years, a true gift to the Igbos. The bridge make a commuter dear the Niger river against all odds. A tourist attraction as well.

There was hold-up on the bridge right from Asaba end. There were up to three incidents of broken down vehicles on the bridge. No road safety official in sight. Road ahead became free afterwards. Except, for extortion going on here and there by both uniformed and plain clothes people.
