Lagos State Government has placed an order for six new train sets from China to strengthen the capacity of the Lagos Rail Mass Transit (LRMT) Blue and Red Lines.
The Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority made this known on Thursday in a statement shared on its X handle.
A new year means new milestones for Lagos!
Six new train sets are on their way to Lagos to strengthen the capacity of our Lagos Rail Mass Transit (LRMT) Blue and Red Lines. This step will transform commuting and further drive economic growth across our state.
These train sets, having successfully passed factory acceptance tests, are scheduled for shipment. Once they arrive, they will increase trips on the Blue Line and prepare us for the extension to Okokomaiko upon the completion of phase two.
Phase two of the Blue Line, a 14-kilometre stretch from Mile 2 to Okokomaiko will connect even more communities, bringing our vision of seamless mobility closer to reality.
Since its launch in September 2023, the Blue Line has transformed commuting in Lagos with 72 daily trips along the Marina to Mile 2 corridor. With the new trains, we will increase capacity, ensuring an even faster and more efficient service for all Lagosians.
This expansion underscores our commitment to building a Greater Lagos that works for everyone. The future of transportation is here, and Lagos is ready to lead the way.
This is Lagos, and we deliver.
