Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State has announced the acquisition of 800 new BRT buses. The governor made the announcement via a tweet, where he also announced the commencement of the expansion of the BRT lanes in the state. According to the Governor, “Beyond road construction, we have started expanding the bus rapid transit system and gradually reducing the danfo buses on the roads. I am excited to announce that we have purchased over 800 buses to add to the existing BRT fleet expanding to more routes” “We are supportive of private investment in transportation that is non-exploitative. This week, I launched @UberBoat, the first of many private-sector efforts at providing safe & efficient water transport working with our water transportation initiatives.” See the tweet below.

It started operations on a 22-kilometer radial highway BRT lanes that connect Mile 12 and Lagos Island. That is, it ran from Mile 12 through Ikorodu Road and Funsho Williams Avenue, Eko Bridge up to CMS. Former Governor of Lagos State, Akinwumni Ambode, in May 2017, donated 50 new BRT buses to the private operator of the BRT service in Lagos. Primero Transport Service Limited is the sole BRT operator in Lagos State. Source: https://autojosh.com/sanwo-olu-acquires-800-new-brt-buses-expands-brt-lanes/ 9 Likes 4 Shares

Why should we hand over the economy of Lagos to a few individual. Primero has been handling the old BRT arrangement and I can tell you that monopolizing the economy of Lagos is not good for the general well being of Lagosians 9 Likes 2 Shares |

All plying the thin and over congested Lagos roads. . They need to create other means of transport in Lagos. A light rail project or intra rail system will solve Lagos traffic issues hugely. Also, water ways should be equipped with more commercial boats. . 1 Like |
