Bridge Linking Kwara Varsity To State Capital City Collapses 

The culvert at the Shao-Malete intersection on the road leading to the permanent campus of Kwara State University (KWASU), Malete in Kwara State has collapsed.

The culvert on the ever-busy Shao-Malete Road collapsed on Tuesday following heavy downpour.

However, the management of KWASU has swung into action to ensure there is movement to and from the university.

The Registrar of the University, Dr Kikelomo Salle, gave the update in a statement issued on Wednesday.

“The Kwara State Ministry of Works and Transport inspected this failed portion of the road immediately after the management of the University reported the development.

“Efforts are on to provide a temporary access road to commuters on the busy route, pending the construction of a new bridge,” Sallee stated.
