Governor BABAJIDE SANWO-OLU of Lagos State has carried out a test run of the Lagos Red Line ahead of this week’s commissioning of the project by President BOLA TINUBU.

The Lagos State governor also inspected the tracks and the rail corridors. 

Some of the comfort facilities inspected by Governor SANWO-OLU included the train’s cooling system, handrails, cushioned seats, and in-built safety features of the wagons.

Governor SANWO-OLU’s deputy, OBAFEMI HAMZAT and members of the State cabinet were part of the entourage.

The 37-kilometre rail line built by the Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority will be inaugurated along with its stations and other ancillary facilities. 

The Red Line traverses seven stations from Agbado, a boundary town in Ogun State, to Oyingbo in Lagos Central.
