it SEEMS LAGOS IS IN THE DARK AGES. WHY CANT LAGOS HAVE A WORLD CLASS UNDERGROUND METRO LINE JUST LIKE SHANGHAI SINGAPIRE LONDON MUMBAI JOHHANEABURG CAIRO?

YES

You forgot that Lagos is a black African city. You must be dreaming to expect to see such in Nigeria. May be in the next 300 years

That is totally not achievable, not with the type of crumbling infrastructure in that city , the city will simply collapse

LAGOS RAIL MASS TRANSIT

The Lagos Rail Mass Transit (LRMT) network is a major component of the Strategic Transport Master Plan (STMP) which has been developed to guide as a compass for the development of public transport infrastructures in the State. The STMP is a 30 year plan put together under series of intensive researches, studies, and analyses of future transportation demands and needs of Lagos State as Nigeria’s commercial and economic hub and one of the world’s fastest growing mega cities.
COMPONENT OF LURN

The Lagos Urban Rail Network (LURN) is a network of urban rail-based systems covering seven major corridors of high commuter traffic demand within and beyond the metropolitan Lagos extending to border areas with States like Ogun and Oyo.

The Urban Rail Network consists of seven (7) railway lines planned along priority and high commuter demand corridors within the Lagos metropolis and farther. The 7 lines link the major population and activity centres in the state, as well as taking advantage, where possible, of existing transport corridors. The network is fully integrated with planned and existing water transport and BRT routes. These lines are
Blue Line :: Okokomaiko to Marina Orange Line :: Redeem to Marina Brown Line :: Mile 12 to Marina Purple Line :: Redeem to Ojo Green Line :: Marina to Lekki (Airport) Yellow Line :: Otta to Iddo Red Line :: Agbado to Marina via Iddo and Muritala Mohammed International Airport (MMIA)
LAGOS RAILWAY CORRIDOR

The North-South corridor between Agbado and Iddo along the Nigerian Railway corridor; the Eastern corridor to serve the emerging development along the Lekki to Epe axis; and the western corridor along the Mile2 – Okokomaiko axis.

Others are: Marina to Lekki axis, Redeem to Ojo, Otta to Iddo, Redeem to Marina and Mile 12 to Marina route. The seven corridors will be connected by a central ring road between Victoria Island and Lagos Island.

Blue Line Rail Project: The Blue Line is a 27 km railroad with thirteen stations from Okokomaiko to Marina. The Blue Line is undergoing construction right in the middle of Lagos-Badagry Expressway which government is currently expanding and redeveloping into a ten-lane international gateway. Apart from the rail, the infrastructure design also includes provision for BRT and multimode integration with Non-Motorized Transport [NMT] such as pedestrian walkways and overhead bridges for safe access by passengers to rail and bus stations.

Work commenced in August 2009 for construction of the Blue Line rail infrastructure, awarded to China Civil Engineering Construction Company (CCECC) as a design and build contract. CCECC prepared the detailed plan, design and construction work for the rail infrastructure. These works include stations, roadbed, bridges, permanent way (P-way) tracks works, pedestrian ways, and other associated fixed infrastructure.

All survey work, a proportion of the detailed design work and mobilization of the contractor was completed between August 2009 and August 2010. The fixed infrastructure is to be implemented in phases and actual construction work commenced with a groundbreaking ceremony attended by His Excellency, Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola on 26th July 2010. Construction works are ongoing for the first phase section between National Theatre and Mile 2. The infrastructure for the first phase is expected to be completed within the first quarter of 2014 while operation would commence after the conclusion of negotiation with the concessionaire, which is expected to provide the rolling stock, operate and manage the rail line
