Lagos state government has reassured that the final over pass bridge that links the red line tracks will be completed as planned and operations will commence without delay.

 

Managing Director, Lagos Metropolitan Area transport authority (LAMATA) Abimbola Akinajo, said this today after inspecting the last of five overpass bridges on the highly anticipated LRMT Red Line, noting that the project will be thoroughly monitored to meet up the first quarter of 2024.

 

Akinajo said all the infrastructure had been completed, leaving only asphalt works, which she said could be completed in 10 days.

 

The Red Line phase 1 traverses a distance of 27 kilometres from Agbado in Ogun State to Oyingbo, Lagos, with stations at Agbado, Iju, Agege, Ikeja, Oshodi, Mushin, Yaba, and Oyingbo.

 

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is expected to commission the Red Line with the first quarter of 2024.
