Red Line: Sanwo-Olu Sets New Pace for Development in Lagos

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has announced the commissioning of the Lagos Red Line project, which he believes will not only improve mobility but also reshape the urban landscape and set a new pace for development.

The governor recently carried out a test run of the Lagos Red Line ahead of its commissioning by President Bola Tinubu today.

The Red Line is a 37 km rail line that integrates key bus terminals at Oyingbo, Yaba, Oshodi, Ikeja, and Iju.

In a statement on X (formerly Twitter), Governor Sanwo-Olu emphasized that the project is more than just a transportation improvement, but a generational leap for the city of Lagos.

He expressed his belief that the Red Line will open doors to opportunities, growth, and a sustainable future by connecting critical points across the city.

The governor’s vision for the project is to make Lagos a global model city for urban excellence.

He called on Lagosians and Nigerians who live and do business in the metropolis to join him in riding into a brighter, more connected future together.

As the Red Line prepares to launch, it represents not only an improvement in transportation but also a symbol of progress and development for the city of Lagos.
