My own perspective about this project is a waste of funds...Ambode just waste money on this project and other bus stop like yaba and oyingbo projects

I love this project.. Nothing half asses about it. Solves a huge problem as well as consolidating the states transport system. Frees up that road which has been overrun by busses and pedestrians. Takes away jobs from touts and provides security to commuters and passengers alike.. And finally, it's a proper 21st century looking project that gives the area a facelift.

[quote author=ajl post=72755787][/quote]I hate abusing people on internet but I thank God I am not poor but comfortable. one of the major problems our present leaders from 1999 are using to syphoned Commonwealth is white elephant projects Nation wide. let me reminds you that BRF spent billions on that same oshodi during his regime which was not up to decade before another Governor demolished everything. uncountable govt housing been abandoned now eg ilubirin, ijora housing etc light rail project not really getting funds again and see lekki free trade zone road causing accident everyday which this kind money can't be used to expand the road before that axis will be over populated because in next five years the axis will be face of new lagos.
Every reasonable person known that Oshodi present project is waste of resources.

The Lagos State Government on Monday said the ongoing Oshodi Transport Interchange conceived and being implemented to evolve a seamless way by which Lagosians commute across the State on a daily basis would be completed within the first quarter of 2019.

Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure, Mr Adebowale Akinsanya, in a statement on the state of the project, said it was gratifying to report that substantial progress had been made towards its completion. The Commissioner added that with the ongoing pace of works, the project would be completed within the first quarter of 2019, and operations commencing soon after, saying that commuters around the State should look forward to having a comfortable, accessible and world-class transport system.


Besides, Akinsanya commended motorists and residents in the State for cooperating with government in the implementation of the project, just as he assured that all hands were on deck to expedite work and complete it on schedule. According to him, “At the moment, 83 per cent total work progress has been achieved, including completion of piling works on the three terminals and completion of the piling works for the Skywalks. “Among others, we have also completed works on the pile caps for the three terminals, concrete works of the buildings, ground floor works on all the loading bays for the three terminals, erection of steelworks for the Skywalks and terminals and Taxi Park and car park area, while road works around the terminal are at an advanced stage as well as bus holding bays around the terminals also at an advanced stage,” Akinsanya said.

The Oshodi Transport Interchange Project (OTIP) which is part of the Bus Reform Initiative of the State Government, is an iconic infrastructure designed to transform the axis forever and enhance connectivity. The project, in a nutshell, seeks to transform Oshodi into a world-class Central Business District (CBD) with business, travel and leisure activities conducted in a serene, secure, clean, orderly and hygienic environment, comparable with other transport terminals around the world including Stratford and Victoria Bus Station in the United Kingdom.

The project, on completion, would consolidate all the 13 city and interstate bus parks into three multi-storey terminals, providing standard facilities including waiting area, loading bays, ticketing stands, drivers lounge, parking areas, rest rooms, accessible walkways and pedestrian sky-walks linking all the terminals.

Re: Oshodi Transport Interchange Now At 83 % Completion Stage (see Pictures) by fedora04: 1:02pm On Nov 07, 2018
It's a beautiful project alright.. But my take is why not use this money to develop Oshodi as a whole. Roads are bad. No proper sanitary system. Light etc

Of what use will this be when the linking roads are not good. It's laudable but I feel there are things more important.

We want to be like Dubai or. London but structure must be in place. What's the use I repeat whats the use when the surrounding environment is filthy and not taken care of

What about housing.. Why not invest this in housing. And provide accommodation for those living around. Even if it is a 1 room apartment

The work force has greatly reduced slowing down the work progress which i fear may not even be completed by middle next year 2019, besides the terrible trafic that should have been addressed and taken care of as a result of the uncordinated half-done type of work by the confused contractors is another issue on its own. OP please do the needful so this will get to the appropriate authorities.

Similar to what it's obtainable in Dubai, at the Metro stations.
Sharaf DG Station
Mall of the Emirates Station
And Tram link at Dubai Marina.

It's nice, but what will it look like in 5 years time? Most flowers planted by the BRF administration are withered already

even the BRT buses are in tattered conditions
