The Bus Reform Initiative of the Lagos State Government which aims at revolutionizing public transportation and usher in ease of connectivity within the state, is expected to add 5,000 new buses to the public transport system.
Also, aside the Intelligent Transport System mechanism of the program which will aid Lagosians to plan their journeys, other features of the scheme such as modern bus terminals, bus depots, bus stops and segregated lay-bys are already springing up in strategic locations across the State.
Speaking on the project, Permanent Secretary, Lagos State Ministry of Transportation, Dr Taiwo Salaam said apart from going a long way to ensure that transport activities are conducted in a safe and comfortable environment, the modern bus stops would also ensure free-flow of traffic as there would no longer be any disruption to vehicular movement.
He listed features of the bus stops to include comfortable bus shelter, lay-by, lighting, walkways, guard-rails, wire-mesh fencing for pedestrian protection and passenger information system, among others.
The project, which was conceptualised, designed and being constructed by an indigenous construction firm, Planet Projects Ltd, according to Salaam, “Will facilitate construction of over 300 bus stops and lay-bys across the State in line with the goal of Governor Akinwunmi Ambode’s administration to bequeath world class transportation system to the State.”

Hello Fella, What you ?came up with here absolutely have me wicked up to the last word, and I wanna say to you I rarely read the entire post of blogs as I often got sick and tired of the gibberish that is presented in the junkyard of the world wide web on a daily basis and I simply end up checking out the headlines and maybe the first lines or something like that. But your headline and the first few rows were exceptional and it right on the spot forced me to stay. So, I just wanna say: nice and rare job! Thanks, really.
