Lungi Bridge, Road bridge project across Sierra Leone River estuary, Sierra Leone
The Lungi Bridge design includes four traffic lanes and space for a future railway line, spanning 7.6 kilometers across the Sierra Leone River estuary.
The Sierra Leone government signed a contract worth 1.5 billion dollars with China Road and Bridge Corporation in December 2023 for the bridge construction.
The bridge project represents Sierra Leone's commitment to modernize transportation infrastructure and marks a shift from traditional water-based transit methods.
The bridge will reduce travel time between Freetown and Lungi International Airport from three hours to approximately ten minutes by creating a direct route.
This infrastructure initiative includes plans for new airport terminals, coastal roads, and the development of industrial zones near Government Wharf.
