Sanwo-Olu: Lagos Metro Train To Switch To Electricity Fully From October 16 by tolue42(op): 8:51pm On Oct 11, 2023
Dear Lagosians,
here is an important update on our metro line. Starting Monday, October 16, 2023, we're increasing train trips on the Lagos Rail Mass Transit (LRMT) Blue Line from 12 to 54, with plans for 74 trips by the end of November.

To make this transition, we'll need to shut down train services on Saturday, October 14 after the morning peak service and for the entire day on Sunday, October 15, for the switch to electricity. This momentary pause is to ensure that your safety is our top priority.

I can assure you that suspending passenger operations is a global practice to effect major changes. This switch to electricity will help us introduce more trips and help us serve more passengers safely.

I'm proud to say that we launched the first phase of the LRMT Blue Line on September 4, 2023 and we have moved over 80,000 passengers. Our goal is to surpass 150,000 daily passengers between Marina and Mile 2 in the coming months.

The future of Lagos trains is bright, and I'm committed to improving your commuting experience. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to enhance our public transportation system.

One fool was asking how the metro line will reduce the price of rice and I laugh at he stupidity cos I don't even know the correlation between the metro line and price of bag of rice.in an attempt to bring down or downplay every development that seem unachievable to them,the get unnecessary lame.people that celebrate JB concrete slab will never stop to exhibit their natural trait of hypocrisy and envy.

For those asking, the date had been set. Let's hope the date won't change. But even if it changes, the train has been serving it's purpose since it's inception, we just want to go cleaner

The blue line train I saw yesterday only had 4 coaches for passengers.

The number of people standing was 3 times those sitting. I just know say Nigeria never ready.

The way they will damage the train because of overloading, It's well.
