wirinet: Better use is a life changing solution like the 4th MB. Better use is the 4th relieving, decongesting and diverting tens of thousands of cars from our major roads in Lagos, Better use is the 4th MB giving Lagosians extra 4 hours per day to do other productive things instead of wasting it sitting in traffic. Better use is the 4th MB eliminating dirty carbon pollution from too many cars sitting in traffic all day. Better use is the 4th MB improving trade and commerce for smoother and better movement of goods, supplies and services because goods and supplies from Ikorodu and out of state jurisdictions like Ogun, Oyo state and beyond can get to lagos propper faster by at least 4-5 hours instead of sitting in traffic for endless hours, Better use is the 4th MB reducing fuel cost, service and maintenance cost and stress , Epe expressway, Apapa - Oshodi expressway, Carter bridge, 3rd mainland bridge, Badagry road, ikorodu are all different and effective solutions that we need and the 4th MB is another vital solution to solve different needs. The 4th MB is not going to solve traffic issues in Festac, in Badagry or anywhere in that axis, it's specifically to solve traffic issues in the most congested parts of Lagos across so many communities from the 3rd MB to Ebute meta, Yaba, Iwaya, Shomolu, Bariga, Mushin, Fadeyi, Palm grove, Ilupeju, Anthony, Ikeja, Maryland, Ketu, Mile 12, Ikorodu, Ijede and cities in between and beyond. While heading to Ikeja or Ikorodu, you can not get on the Badagry expressway. Every solution is specifically tailored to serve different needs in different areas of the society so that was a misguided and irrelevant sentiment. Now, millions of Lagosians from every corner of Lagos leave the homes all day and every day to seek their daily bread on the island, billions in goods and services are transported inside and outside Lagos Island everyday and millions of Lagosians waste valuable and costly productive hours in traffic while trying to get to work, for service, commerce and social engagements so it's very vital and important for sane and sensible governments to produce critical solutions like alternate routes, alternate entry and exit points. What you pay for goods and services is a reflection of the cost of transportation from fuel to wasted man hours in traffic and congestions. Many of us are just too simplistic when it comes to serious issues affection us daily, we bad mouth and get cynical over critical solutions put in place to address our daily realities and offer us a better quality of life. We love to compare ourselves with other countries especially advanced countries with hundreds of years of progress and development, with hundreds of billions of dollars in yearly budget to throw at any traffic issues. They don't say just because they built a bridge over there to solve traffic issues in on area so they don't have to do anything to solve traffic issues in another are, they are still building bridges, highways and so on. Transportation ideas and solutions are all inclusive and from what we've seen in Lagos, they are addressing them all across the board with Mass Transit solutions from Metro Rail to waterways, roads and bridges. Btw, we don't need new urban clutters to clutter an already cluttered Lagos, what we need is congestions, less human migration and traffic into Lagos state because Lagos state no matter what can not keep up with the ever widening population because more people means more roads, more hospitals, more schools, more bridges, more government services, more programs and policies and more importantly, quick degradation and destruction of built infrastructures. 1 Like |

We must not boil water for garri to make eba until the soup is ready mentality. Are the bridges not supposed to move away traffic and reduce pressure on our roads and make them last longer?

Originalsly: You said we need a rail system, but Lagos state is constructing one as we speak, so is the same metro rail that you said we need that is currently under construction a white elephant? IS 3rd MB a white elephant? Is the 4th MB that's going to shift tens of thousands of cars and congestion from 3rd MB and open up other towns and cities beyond Lagos a white elephant? Having a bridge like the 4th MB means you don't have to cramp yourself up inside Lagos, it means you get to avoid high rent in Lagos and hours in traffic by moving to Ikorodu axis all the way to Ijede Where rent is cheaper and still make it to work in Lagos island faster than people living in Ikeja. Apart from reducing traffic on our major roads, it's a quality of life game changer. Many people moved to Ijede and Ikorodu for a reason, it's because LASG opened and expanded ferry services to move workers from the island to Ikorodu and Ijede and the commute is less than 30 minutes while by road the same trip to the island by road is 3-4 hours. This is quality mass transit, it means you are already at home by 5-6 PM instead of 9-10 PM, it means you don't have to leave home at 3-4 AM. So, which one is white elephant? I know your type, you are arguing not because anything genuine to discuss, you obviously have some bad bele and Lagos hating issues. |

Originalsly: A good light rail, bus service with good comfort etc will make many people abandon their cars Again one is under construction as we speak, it's called Lagos Metro Rail so exactly what's your point? You keep arguing blindy.' Now, there are 2,000 bridges in NY plus turnessl so they obviously don't have room for additional bridges un like Lagos where there's no subway, no tunnels and just 3 main bridges connecting the Island and the mainland. There budget in NY is $177 billion, it's $4 billion in Lagos state so stop the needless and illogical comparisons. Is the Lagos Metro rail not a mass transit system? Is the 4th MB not a mass transit project? Now you've moved your illogical argument to maintenance? I can't wait to see you shift your next post to how come we don't have space ship. I think I'm done with you because you are not making any sense. 1 Like |

12inchess: Do you have congestion on your street? No you don't. The congestion are limited to the main roads and the main roads are full of traffic from thousands of people heading to work or heading back home from let's say Ikorodu, this traffic share the same Ikorodu road with people heading to or coming from other major areas like Ikeja, Mile 12, Ilupeju, Palm Groove and even from out of Lagos state like Ogun state and Oyo state and so on., diverting that traffic from out of state and from Ikoroddu to the 4th MB straight to the Island means you are removing tens of thousands of cars from ikorodu road, it means you are reducing congestion in Yaba, Ebute meta and all the roads that leads to the 3rd mainland. And please stop comparing yourself with USA and Canada, our daily realities are not the same, 20 million people didn't cramp themselves up in one little city in the USA or Canada and their budgets are hundreds of billions of dollars, not $4 billion like Lagos.

Agugbadin: Lagos Metro Rail is designed to move over 500, 000 passengers per day 500,000 X 300 per passenger X 26 working days = N3,900,000,000 That's almost N4 billion per month and N48 billion per year.

Originalsly: The topic is actually 800 Houses To Go As Lagos Proposes $2.2 Billon For 4th Mainland Bridge, not vehicular congestion. If you can not engage in a sane back and forth discussion, just say so, not need to keep dancing around, faking topics and making your own rules, it doesn't work that way, this is a discussion forum, not your own forum where you dictate the rules or move goal posts just because you can not formulate sane and rational thoughts It's common sense that traffic congestion is a manifestation of human congestion, it's also common sense that people drive from so many locations and points within the city just to get to the same bridge heading into and out od the city and when you crate alternate entry and exit points, you effectively reduce and divert traffic within the city. Do you not drive through the city to get to the bridge? You ever imagine how many drivers doing the same thing at the same time? Do you know how many drivers take side roads and short cuts within the city to dodge traffic and get to the bridge faster than other drivers? I don't know why this is a foreign concept to you, it's just common sense, I'd understand if the issue here is the road in front of your house, but we are talking about major roads that tens of thousands of people are riding to get to the gridges from island to mainland or vise versa. You are getting redundant for me, I think I'm wasting my time here. |

Originalsly: Inner City congestion is largely due to vehicular traffic leaving and entering the city, not from within and if you remove the traffic heading to the entry and exit points aka the bridges, you reduce inner city congestion, it means less mixture of people going from point A to point B within the city and the traffic trying to get out of the city. Now look at the 3rd MB or folks leaving the island and heading to maybe Yaba, Ebute Meta, Palmgrove, Ilupeju, Anthony, Ikeja, Mile 12, Sagamu, Ijebu Ode and so on, they all have to first share the 3r MB and tie up all the roads from Ebute Meta to Yaba, Fadeyi, Maryland and even all the way to Ikorodu, but with the 4th MB, you seperate them all, the folks heading to Ikorodu axis, Ijede, Shagamu, Ijebu ode and so on can just get on the 4th MB and leave the 3rd MB for the folks heading to Yaba, Ebute Meta, Palmgrove, Ilupeju, Anthony, Ikeja other parts of Lagos. You reduce inner city traffic when you have multiple entry and exit points. What I think you are concerned about has nothing to do with 4th MB, it's more about people living in congested human areas, overpopulation and so on, you can not build enough roads to address overpopulation and people living in densely populated areas. LASG can not keep up with population pressure on infrastructures and $3-4 Billion budget for more than 20 million people and several thousands crossing into Lagos everyday is not and never going to be enough. If you are going to talk about vehicular congestion, you must also address and talk about human congestion that the state can not keep up with no matter what. |

Originalsly: Gridlock is the effect of less in and out points out of the cities,, like too many vehicular traffic heading to the same exit and entry points within the cities, the 4th MB os designed to take away heavy traffic from the other entry and exit points. The 4th MB means removal or diversion of tens of thousands of cars and other vehicular traffic per day away from Ikorodu road and other city roads, this takes pressure of the main and inner city roads. I don't get how it's possible to criticize and lay blames for horrible traffic and gridlock while at the same time attacking and criticizing sane and rational solutions put in place to address the same thing you are criticizing? What they are proposing and what they are trying to address are basic solutions and common sense, it's not rocket science. I think many of you are either confused or just criticizing just to hear yourself talk, I just don't get it. |

debaj10: Ask yourself, do you think the funds generated by the state is kept somewhere where to show you everyday when you ask them to show you the money? Was that a sane and realistic question? What the poster was trying to explain to you is the fact that the money is tied to the state's daily activities from the projects they fund, the salaries they pay, the programs and policies they fund, the agencies and institutions they operate, the bills and the vendors they pay and so on. If your question was a sane and realistic question, why not ask the other 35 states in Nigeria to show you their money, at least they are all collect monthly allocations, IGR, derivations and so on. |

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Rail is part of the transportation master plan and the Red and Blue lines are part of that masterplan. The Blue line should be serving 200,000 Lagosians per day right now, but unfortunately not at the moment because Ambode grounded the project almost to a halt for 4 years so we have a lot of catching up to do. 11 Likes |

BB get sense pass sense itself, sowore and his rag tag comedians lost election and that they are yet to get over. Election is all bout winning and losing and the fact that you lost at the polls doesn't mean you have to take or win power via other means. Revolution is a forcible overthrow of a government or social order and the fact that sowore is not already in prison or worse is a reflection of Nigeria as a lawless country. In America the land of democracy, the punishment for revolution or advocating overthrow of government gets you 29 years in prison. Looters and corrupt people don't go to jail in Nigeria and criminal elements openly violating the laws of Nigeria like sowore also don't go to prison. What a lawless country., 5 Likes 1 Share |
