In his efforts to transform the Lagos state transport infrastructure, Lagos state governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu embarked on a working visit recently to Beijing, China at the headquarters of the China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC) to meet with the executives of the Corporation.
The governor announced this in his X official handle (formerly Twitter), where he expressed delight that the Red Line Rail project covering Agbado to Otto is ready for commissioning in few weeks’ time. He revealed that the inauguration of the line is just weeks away. “We are set to provide more relief for commuters.” He said.
He further said, “This significant milestone is a testament to our commitment to enhancing transportation for millions of Lagos residents.”
Disclosing that we eagerly await the official commissioning, I’m pleased to share that HE President Bola Tinubu has agreed to grace the occasion heralding the launch of the Red Line Rail for commercial operations.
The governor maintained that Lagos will continue to work for us all, and that’s a promise we intend to keep fulfilling.
