is a focal point for investors capitalising on rich
development growth based on massive demand

Eko Atlantic’s “Great Wall of Lagos” exceeds 6km length Eko Atlantic, a brand new city being built adjacent to Victoria Island, Lagos, announces the Great Wall of Lagos has surpassed 6 kilometres in length. Construction of the Great Wall of Lagos, which can be seen from space, began construction in 2009. The wall, which will reach 8.5 kilometers upon completion, is a large sea revetment that protects the emerging new city, Victoria Island, and parts of Lekki from the threat of flooding due to coastal erosion and ocean surge. “Various Nigerian and international searches show that the erosion rate of the Lagos coast, since as far as back 1910’s, when the record began, has been in the order of 2 to 10 meters per year” says Daniel Kamau, Managing Director, Royal Haskoning Engineering Consultants, the appointed marine engineers for the Eko Atlantic Project. “The land where Eko Atlantic is being built existed historically, but has eroded over a long period. Eko Atlantic will restore some of the land lost to the sea and protect it from erosion,” he concluded. The revetment uses a proven method of Accropode units as primary armour for the structure. Each accropode is made on site and weighs 5 tons. 100,000 accropodes will be placed in a predefined grid, using a GPS system for pin-point accuracy. The basic principles of revetment, as a proven engineering solution for river and coastal protection, have been used for centuries, if not millenniums, around the world. The sea wall is designed and tested to handle the worst storms in hundreds/thousand years, putting into consideration global warming and rising sea levels. 11 Likes 2 Shares |

update5/ Eko Atlantic completes 14 bridges
By Sunday Michael Ogwu, Lagos | Publish Date: Jan 23
2017 2:00AM
Eko Atlantic City, one of the world’s most advanced new
cities being built adjacent to the Victoria Island in
Lagos, has made significant progress in its
infrastructural development (for phases I and II) as it
has completed 14 bridge structures in just two years.
The bridges, built to international standards, within
phases one and two, extend to over five million square
metres representing half of the entire planned city
development.
Work on the bridge project commenced in December
2014 when the first bridge deck was cast and the last
bridge project completed on schedule in December
2016.
Phases I and II of the city, which is divided into eight
districts (Harbour Lights, Business Districts, Eko Drive,
Marina, Ocean Front, Down Town, Eko Energy Estate
and Avenues), is planned for mixed-use with
commercial, residential, entertainment and leisure
activities to make the city a 24/7 lively environment.
With the new bridges, all the districts are now
accessible by road. The bridge works have enabled all
major avenues to overpass the canal system running
through the spine of the project.
All the bridges are between 2-8 lanes. For instance,
Bridge 7 comprises a six-lane carriageway and is
located on Avenue 1, thus defining the western
boundary of the Business District, the commercial
heartland of the city. Spanning 52 metres overall in
three sections, Bridge 7 is typical of the design utilised
throughout all bridges and comprises a reinforced
concrete cast in-situ deck with concrete piers and
abutments. The last bridge was deliberately constructed
to overpass the canal entrance to the South West
Marina, defining the marine access to the Atlantic
Ocean.
Mr. David Frame, Managing Director of South Energyx
Nigeria Limited (SENL), a subsidiary of the Chagoury
Group said, “We are fully committed to ensuring that the
project is completed on schedule. With the successful
completion of all the bridges, all the major avenues
within Phase 1 and 2 of the city are now fully
interconnected, with the comprehensive road network of
the city defined and all zones accessible.”
It would be recalled that the city in November last year
unveiled the first of the Eko Pearl Towers, a residential
building in its Marina District. The commissioning of the
tower which was done by the Lagos State Governor,
Akinwunmi Ambode, came some months after the
commissioning of the city’s Eko Boulevard, Nigeria’s
first eight-lane city road.
