Sanwo- Olu to open Yaba bridge

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu will tomorrow open the Lagos Rail Mass Transit (LRMT) Red Line Overpass at Yaba.

The T-shaped bridge takes traffic from Murtala Muhammed Way into Ojuelegba Road and vice versa over the rail tracks.

The Yaba Overpass Bridge is one of the four new bridges built by the Sanwo-Olu/ Hamzat administration on the Red Line rail alignment to eliminate vehicular/pedestrian and train traffic interaction.

The Yaba Overpass Bridge is one of the four designed for the Red Line. The others are at Ikeja, Mushin and Oyingbo.

The Lagos State Government wants to ensure that there are no accidents between cars and trains and that's why it is removing level crossings from the route of the Red Line and replacing them with bridges. Cars will go over the bridges while trains will pass below.

The Government is also building a lot of pedestrian bridges along the route. For example, there will be a bridge that connects Yaba Bus Stop (the white roof in the pictures above) with Yaba Train Station.

They are being built by he state government.

The one in Ikeka is at Ikeja Along

Hehehe

Which Governor in Nigeria works in his 2nd term in office as if it was his 1st term?

God bless Sanwolu.

This is the man some people wanted Lagos to lose just to impose one boy full of mediocrities just to help them to hijack the state.

Shoodboi:
I can see tribal bigots like accordadoga29 and uyi168 have booked space while typing their tribal comments.

SEUN OSEWA what are you doing about the massive anti-tribal and anti-religious hate speech on Nairaland?

Your lack of action against these people is killing this forum and causing intelligent people to not bother commenting.

Hehehehe

Chukwudi, rest.

I have not gone against any rule here.

I’m Yoruba and I’m proud of it.

I will continue to defend my ethnicity.

If that makes me tribalistic, so be it

@ the bolded: Pele, King Solomon

..better governor..

Nice one

Lagos seems to be the only state with visionary governance…. doesn’t really matter who’s the governor, every project is for the developmental welfare of the city …

Thank God.

What is witty about these comments for goodness sake?

Wittyness.

No man's land.

Congratulations to the people of Lasgidi.

Dear Uncle Sanwo,
Please you can do better.

#RenewedHope

That's a good one. Tinubu will still claim it as one of his achievement While the real nigga will watch from the crowd. I pray for Sanwo, Tinubu will never take your glory.

Thank You Tinubu for given us Sanwo-Olu and removed Ambode their so called the best Governor. And thank You the original Lagosians for standing gidigba for govt of continuity and flushed out the parasite Gbadebo.

Superb view

Thank God. I have been waiting for this. My journey from Yaba to Ojuelegba would be more easier

Okay
