The Nation Newspaper Sanwo-Olu opens Yaba Overpass Bridge, awards contract for Blue Line second phase

has inaugurated the Yaba Overpass Bridge and assured that the remaining three on the Red Line route – Ikeja, Mushin, and Oyingbo would also be opened before the year’s end.

The governor also warned against trading and illegal activities on the bridge and the rail tracks, especially, illegal parking by commercial drivers. He sued for cooperation with officials of the Lagos State Traffic Management, Authority . He added: “We are looking at other rail lines for implementation. These are the Green Line, a 68-kilometre rail route from Marina to Lekki Free Zone, and the Purple Line, 60 kilometres in length from Redemption Camp to Ojo. We are convinced that these two lines will improve the travel experience of our people, reduce congestion, reduce Greenhouse Gas emissions, and improve their lifestyles.“Ladies and gentlemen, our transport projects have been implemented at a huge cost.

Managing Director of the Lagos Metropolitan Transportation Authority , Mrs. Abimbola Akinajo, noted that the Ikeja and Oyingbo Bridges will be opened soon, while the one in Mushin will be completed before the end of the year.
