SAVE LAGOS BRT: RESTORE THE LAGOSIANS TRANSPORT LIFELINE

The Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system in Lagos currently operates at an extremely worrisome level. The system which was previously celebrated as an organized transportation solution in our active city has turned into a poor representation of its former self. Passengers endure long delays at bus stops while waiting for nonexistent buses until they must rely on cost-prohibitive services from other transport companies. The decay of unrepaired BRT buses makes the entire BRT investment practice questionable because we do not take care of what we own. Your administration has always promoted Lagos as a model city but the essential problem of functional public mass transit continues to persist. The initial implementation of BRT buses as a congestion solution and affordable transport system now creates additional difficulties because these buses have disappeared from the streets. A neglected home will disintegrate according to the wise report which seems to describe our BRT system. Proper manageme...
