Build more bridges.. Expand the existing roads... laying more emphasis on the use of waterways and railways... Making efficient use of traffic light.. Or using technology more... Lastly taking lastma and all those Agberos away from road..but I doubt if government can take Agberos away cos they also have their own share out of the daily money.. |

On the third mainland bridge for morning inbound let extra lane be open on the other side to motorist,we always have very low traffic moving out of island in the morning, so that those driving towards obalende after can use the lane, and reverse this routing for the evening outbound ,due to low traffic of people coming into the island. Also the waterways needs lots of jetties ,to move more people on the waterways. More traffic lights and less round about. More brt routes to be introduced . |

All Lagos needs is a comprehensive rail system, this can be deployed underground, suspended or an hybrid system. The system should be deployed on the most traffic heavy routes of Lagos-Ikorodu to Ketu to Anthony to, Costain to Akpongbon to Leventis to VI to Lekki to Epe. Another line should run from Badagry to Mile 2 to Coconut to Leventis, a link from Anthony to Oshodi to Cele to Mile 2. The train line to Epe can link to a new town in Odogbolu or towns not as far. I think these things are already being done though and it will all materialise in time. Lagos can not be fixed over night. 1 Like |

What Lagos needs is to open and construct more inner roads like that of London you can link one street to another and to the main road not like Lagos it's only one way to get to a destination. Invite private participation, let people buy ferries to transport people across the Lagoon. Interconnecting rail lines across various locations in Lagos. Build more Flyover bridges These will get rid of the traffic. 3 Likes |

The major mode of transport in Lagos is road. The congestion in Lagos happen as a result of very few limited alternative mode of transport. Just imagine if trains actually exist and are efficiently utilized. Would you choose to go by road, knowing that you can go by train that will take to you to your destination within minutes? What Ambode has to do is create alternative mode of transport. The amount of cars on the road keep multiplying approximately every month and the roads available cannot accommodate them, thereby causing congestion here and there. 2 Likes |

Potholes and bad roads cause most of the bottlenecks in Lagos. Let him fix that first. Also, if accommodation was cheap, people would be living close to their workplaces as well so there won't be need for so many cars on the road doing 6-hour journeys everyday just to get to work. Solve this and see miracles happen |

The light rail transportation is a good idea that once completed, will really decongest traffic in Lagos. Secondly, Gov Ambode should utilize the water ways in the state. Develop water transportation in Lagos, and make it very affordable for Lagosians to patronize by implementing the right policies while ensuring safety. Finally the govt should find a way to fine danfo buses and drivers that park illegally on the road. Sometimes this illegal parking causes traffic, and with this fine, I believe it will deter danfo drivers and other drivers to stop parking illegally on the road. |

Enforce Danfo and buses to pick passengers in designated parks Insist that all residential house /hotels must have parking space instead of stores. You can only add store if you have parking space. |

Separate the days the numbers that start with even and odd numbers will ply Lagos roads. And you're to pay 500 naira fee daily if you are to ply the road everyday, This will generate more revenue and reduce traffic. Check the agberos by breaking them, at list into 5 unions . Let Ambode chat me privately for the last solution. |
Re: If You Were Ambode, What 2 Things Would You Do To Improve Traffic In Lagos? by lextube: 1:24pm On Apr 17, 2018 |
The govt should also include under ground railways in the future plan of Lagos transportation system. There's no mega city with this kind of transport infrastructure. |

I will make the roads wider 8 lanes each. I will ensure that the metro rail system is put into effective use.. this will reduce traffic on a huge huge level in nigeria today, an average family has 2 to 3 cars the rich however have 10 cars and above. the issue is nigerians love to live an unnecessary luxurious life which doesn't happen abroad |

Build overhead bridge at Toyota (Osodi Apapa express way) and ensure nobody cross the express way. That place is a nightmare daily from 5pm and I've been robbed twice in traffic in the process Yellow buses activity around busstops is another nightmare. If these activities are regulated with strict rules and punishments there'll be less traffic |

I don't know how to get in touch with the appropriate authority. I'll be glad if you can help. We still have thousands yet to register for PVC. |
