100,000 buses would not be sufficient, if the traffic situation is not resolved.........


What use is a transport network, stuck in traffic sent by the devil.........

AutoJoshNIG:
Lagos State, the most populous state in Nigeria, is one of the fastest-growing cities in the world. It is also considered as one of the world’s 36 mega-cities.

Lagos has one of the largest, most extensive, and busiest road networks in West Africa. Sadly, Lagos has an insufficient suburban train and some ferry services.

Transportation within the state is principally by road. This often leaves the internal roads and expressways congested at peak hours, due in part to the geography of the city, as well as its explosive population growth.

Shortly before the advent of the Lagos BRT, Lagos was regarded as the only megacity (defined by the UN as a city with a population of over 10 million) without any organized public transport system.

A new monorail system that is supposed to span the length of the Badagry expressway to Lagos Island is currently under construction.

Despite the introduction of the BRT bus system and over 800 new intra-city buses by the Akinwunmi Ambode-led administration, there is still a significant deficit of public mass transit vehicles in Lagos.

The photos below show the daily challenges of getting available mass transit vehicles faced by residents of Lagos state.

Truth be told , I'm so Proud of You Auto josh. I appreciate you a lot

dexmond:
I think the LASG should allow other investors to buy vehicles and put into the system.

Edusouls:
Chai this state is just a living hell, make them use army decongest people by force back to their states, most of people you see there have no work no skill just to dey populate Lagos dem Sabi..

Deepfreezer:
Lagos population is that of Ghana as whole. The greed and short sightedness in the lords of lagos will not allow them to decongest Lagos by moving markets, companies and other establishments outside of lagos. This is what Anambra state government saw way back and moved alot of market and companies out of Onitsha thereby reducing the population and also developing some rural area across the state.

MIKOLOWISKA:
You can volunteer to leave na

I have left long time ago. Just for ur info WISKA

9jvirgin:
I just got back from an European tour, I visited Denmark, Sweden, Poland, Germany and London. These countries too are heavily populated but you need to see how thousands of trains, subways and buses helps people to connect so FAST and EASY. Dedicated rail tracks and roads for buses was clearly noticeable.

Almost all the population in Denmark had bicycles, at 4pm I saw people with Suit and Ties riding their bikes home.

I took a train from Copenhagen, Denmark to Malmo, Sweden and the whole trip lasted for 2 hours and 45 mins. The problem is not the population, the problem is black man-kind.

We may never get it right!

Jeez dude. U made a very bold and ignorant statement. D funny thing is that u were even saying it with so much confidence like u came to Lagos& u didn't c any completed & functional rail lines. Then its very possible that d mention of various train stations and terminuses in Lagos will b alien to u. FYI, trains operate on every working day in Lagos. They have been doing it 4 decades. So I don't no d news u read that Lagos has no "completed and functional" rail lines

Not everyone would use the buses. So dealing with the traffic, is the lowest hanging fruits...........

MIKOLOWISKA:
How do tough deal with traffic

Will you ban cars
Or stop pal from buying cars

Eagleboney:
I am talking of the one that has took up to 22 years and is still not completed which is Lagos light rail only 2 has been completed out of The proposed 7 line, that is the only rail line that will impact greatly in Lagos those ones you are talking about ,if there is any ooo is of little or no importance

Eagleboney:
I am talking of the one that has took up to 22 years and is still not completed, Lagos light rail.

lexy2014:


U cannot b talking of Lagos light rail when ur exact words were this: "there are no completed and functional rail lines in Lagos".

U are shifting d goal post in d middle of d game or when u were saying "rail lines", didn't u no d meaning?

lexy2014:


It seems u don't even no what u are saying. Am very certain that u have never been to Lagos, but u trying to prove that u no what is happening in Lagos. Unfortunately, u doing a very bad job& exposing ur ignorance.

Which light rail are u talking about, oga? There's no light rail in Lagos how much more d one that has been completed.

D 2 light rails that u say have been completed in Lagos, what is d name of terminuses? From where to where do they run?

Lexusgs430:


Very good question........

I would start by enforcing 100% MOT clampdown.... All MOT certificates, would only be issued by Government approved technician points...

Would follow worldwide approved standards, in issuing certificates.......

If your vehicle fails an MOT test, it must not be driven.......

And if you are caught driving it, N80K fine ..... Vehicle would be impounded and only released once fine is paid...

Failure to pay fine within 60 days, vehicle would be sent to the crusher..........


NB : I would provide loads of vehicle pound centres + tow vehicles etc etc

MIKOLOWISKA:
you may not complete first term

Eagleboney:
okay ,but those ones are of little importance to the country. I made a mistake,I meant the Lagos light rail for the first time

Eagleboney:
I have not been to Lagos and I am not rushing to come there, but haven't you heard of orange, blue,green and so so so of the Lagos rail

lexy2014:


I didn't ask u 2 come to Lagos. Am saying that u have never been to Lagos & u are talking as if u no what's happening in Lagos. By so doing, u are exposing ur ignorance more& more. U are in Onitsha & u have never been to Lagos & u are asking me if I have heard of "orange, blue,green and so so so of the Lagos rail"? U really dont have any idea about what u saying. D "orange, blue,green and so so so of the Lagos rail", where are they in Lagos? Which terminuses are they at?

Eagleboney:

Eagleboney:
