Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA) is set to roll out 400 buses to
service the new route. Adejuwon Osunnuyi writes.
For the residents of Ikorodu town of Lagos state, they seem
to have every cause to be delighted. With the successful completion of the much
publicised N30 billion expansion work on the 13.5 kilometre Mile12 to Ikorodu
Road project, as expected, the nightmare they have been experiencing over the
years over persistent traffic snarl seem to be over.
Basking in the euphoria of the successful completion of the
road expansion project, at an enlarged stakeholders meeting organised by the
promoter of the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT ) extension project along the Mile
12-Ikorodu town axis, Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA),
stakeholders mainly from Ikorodu expressed optimism and support for the
project.
